“…If a patient complains of cardiopulmonary symptoms, such as chest pain, dyspnea, palpitation, or syncope, POCUS can be performed by a physician to assess heart function or intravascular volume status immediately.

Point-of-care blood tests, usually comprising blood gas analysis and lactate measurement, can be conducted to assess the acid-base status as early as possible.…”
