Abstract Vascular ultrasound is used for diagnosis of DVT which is a very common finding in the ICU, and it carries high risk of pulmonary embolism which is potentially fatal. Another important use of vascular ultrasound is the placement of vascular access without complications. Ocular ultrasound is useful in trauma patients for diagnosis of rupture globe and in non-trauma patients for measurement of intracranial pressure. Ultrasound uses in urethral catheterization and endotracheal intubation potentially decrease the complications of these procedures |
