Background

  • Several techniques are available for differentiating shock states
  • RUSH Protocol was conceived in 2008 and looks are 3 basic aspects of physiology[1]
  1. The Pump
  2. The Tank
  3. The Pipes

The Protocol

Step 1: The Pump
Step 2: The Tank
Step 3: The Pipes

Rapid Ultrasound for Shock and Hypotension(RUSH) using the HI-MAP approach[2]

  • H - Heart (parasternal and four-chamber views)
  • I - Inferior Vena Cava (for volume responsiveness)
  • M - Morison’s pouch (i.e., FAST exam) and views of thorax (looking for free fluid)
  • A - Aortic Aneurysm (ruptured abdominal aneurysm)
  • P - Pneumothorax (i.e., Tension pneumothorax)

Heart

Technique: see Cardiac ultrasound

  • Pericardial Effusion
    • Parasternal long
    • Change in size <30% between sys and dia = poor LV function
  • RV collapse
    • In 4-chamber view, RV should be <60% of LV; if larger think RV failure
  • Hyperdynamicity
    • Walls move >90% or touch at end of systole
      • May indicate hypovolemia or sepsis

IVC

Technique: see IVC ultrasound

  • Measure 2cm from RA-IVC junction
  • If IVC <1.5cm and collapses on inspiration then CVP is low
  • If IVC >2.5cm and noncollapsing then CVP is high
    • Suggests fluid unresponsive; patient requires inotropes

Morison's

Technique: see FAST exam

  • Assess for free fluid
    • Morison's pouch
    • Splenorenal
    • Bladder

Aorta

Technique: see Aortic ultrasound

  • If >5cm assume ruptured AAA until proven otherwise

Pulmonary

Technique: see Ultrasound: Lungs

  • Assess for subpleural interstitial edema
    • Look for multiple comet tail artifacts or "B lines"(a few, 3-4, are OK)
      • If multiple found, there is interstitial edema
  • Assess for pneumothorax
    • Scan longitudinally in anterior 2nd-3rd IC space, mid-clavicular line
    • Look for lack of sliding or "beach sign"

Other

Classic Ultrasound Findings For Critically Ill Patients
