Article Synopsis
- Lung ultrasound (LUS) is an effective and convenient imaging tool for assessing COVID-19 pneumonia, allowing for bedside evaluation and ongoing monitoring of patients.
- A study of 96 hospitalized patients revealed that LUS patterns, such as B-lines and consolidations, are linked to disease severity and stage, particularly worsening during the intermediate period of illness (day 7 to 13 post-symptom onset).
- Results indicate that LUS can help differentiate between localized disease (consolidations) and generalized illness (B-lines), providing valuable insights into the patient's condition and related complications.
