One of the BIGGEST #POCUS misconceptions is that B lines 🟰 pulmonary edema 🤦‍♀️

Did you know that there is actually a wide DDx for B lines?

Time for another #POCUS pitfalls thread: the infamous IVC 🤩

I have MANY thoughts on the IVC 💭

When I first started teaching POCUS, I actually disliked the IVC because it was often poorly done or incorrectly interpreted ❌

I have now come to love the IVC, BUT you have to do it right!

At little rule of thumb here: if you see systolic D sign/septal flattening, and the patient is not in shock, it’s not acute pressure overload and likely not acute PE. #pocus
