    Abstract Abstract: We report the case of a 6-year-old boy presenting to the emergency department after a syncopal event during a flu-like illness. Intermittent ventricular tachycardia was noted during Emergency Medical Services transport, and a focused cardiac ultrasound (FOCUS) in the emergency department revealed a dilated left ventricle and left atrium as well as severe global systolic dysfunction. Point-of-care ultrasound findings prompted expedited evaluation and management of this critically ill patient.

    Abstract Background: Disparities in health care quality frequently focus on underuse. We evaluated racial/ethnic differences in low-value services delivered in the pediatric emergency department (ED).
    Methods: We performed a retrospective cross-sectional study of low-value services in children discharged from 39 pediatric EDs from January 2018 to December 2019 using the Pediatric Hospital Information System. Our primary outcome was receipt of one of 12 low-value services across nine conditions, including chest radiography in asthma and bronchiolitis; beta-agonist and corticosteroids in bronchiolitis; laboratory testing and neuroimaging in febrile seizure; neuroimaging in afebrile seizure; head injury and headache; and any imaging in sinusitis, constipation, and facial trauma. We analyzed the association of race/ethnicity on receipt of low-value services using generalized linear mixed models adjusted for age, sex, weekend, hour of presentation, payment, year, household income, and distance from hospital.
    Results: We included 4,676,802 patients. Compared with non-Hispanic White (NHW) patients, non-Hispanic Black (NHB) and Hispanic patients had lower adjusted odds (aOR [95% confidence interval]) of receiving imaging for asthma (0.60 [0.56 to 0.63] NHB; 0.84 [0.79 to 0.89] Hispanic), bronchiolitis (0.84 [0.79 to 0.89] NHB; 0.93 [0.88 to 0.99] Hispanic), head injury (0.84 [0.80 to 0.88] NHB; 0.80 [0.76 to 0.84] Hispanic), headache (0.67 [0.63 to 0.72] NHB; 0.83 [0.78 to 0.88] Hispanic), and constipation (0.71 [0.67 to 0.74] NHB; 0.76 [0.72 to 0.80] Hispanic). NHB patients had lower odds (95% CI) of receiving imaging for afebrile seizures (0.89 [0.8 to 1.0]) and facial trauma (0.69 [0.60 to 0.80]). Hispanic patients had lower odds (95% CI) of imaging (0.57 [0.36 to 0.90]) and blood testing (0.82 [0.69 to 0.98]) for febrile seizures. NHB patients had higher odds (95% CI) of receiving steroids (1.11 [1.00 to 1.21]) and beta-agonists (1.38 [1.24 to 1.54]) for bronchiolitis compared with NHW patients.
    Conclusions: NHW patients more frequently receive low-value imaging while NHB patients more frequently receive low-value medications for bronchiolitis. Our study demonstrates the differences in care across race and ethnicity extend to many services, including those of low value. These findings highlight the importance of greater understanding of the complex interaction of race and ethnicity with clinical practice.

    Abstract Objectives: The aims of the study were to estimate testing and treatment rates among pediatric low-acuity emergency department (ED) visits and to compare testing and treatment patterns at general and pediatric-specific EDs.
    Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study of triage level 4 or 5 pediatric visits from a complex survey of nonfederal US EDs from 2008 to 2017. We analyzed demographics, vital signs, disposition, testing, and treatment. We calculated proportions for each data element and used χ2 tests to determine differences between general and pediatric EDs.
    Results: There were an estimated 306.2 million pediatric visits with 129.1 million acuity level 4 or 5 visits (57.2%; 95% confidence interval, 55.4%-58.9%), with diagnostic testing performed in 47.1% and medications administered in 69.6% of the visits. Most low-acuity visits (82.0%) were to general EDs. Tests performed more frequently in general EDs compared with pediatric EDs included radiographs (25.8% vs 15.7%, P < 0.01), complete blood count (6.4% vs 3.9%, P < 0.01), electrolytes (11.6% vs 3.7%, P < 0.01), and glucose (2.0% vs 0.9%, P < 0.01). Ultrasound was used less frequently in general EDs (0.5 vs 0.7, P < 0.01). There were similar rates of intravenous fluid and overall medication administration and a higher proportion of patients receiving antibiotics in general EDs (28.7% vs 23.8%, P < 0.01).
    Conclusions: More than half of pediatric visits to the ED are low acuity. Although general EDs relied on more imaging, blood testing and antibiotics, and pediatric EDs on ultrasound, overall resource utilization was high in this population across both ED types and can likely be reduced.

    Abstract The differential diagnosis for patients presenting in shock can be broad, making rapid diagnosis and management challenging. We present a case of a medically complex patient with presumed septic shock, diagnosed with a large pericardial effusion with evidence of tamponade using the rapid ultrasound in shock and hypotension protocol. The point-of-care ultrasound examination allowed for more timely and definitive management.
