“…Ultrasound scoring method: According to the lung ultrasound (LUS) score [3], the following grading was used in each region: 0 points (pleural line and A-line, < 3 B lines); 1 point (more than 3 B-lines); 2 points (coalescent B-lines); 3 points (pulmonary consolidation signs). The LUS score was calculated as the sum of all regional scores ranging from 0-36 points.…”

“…Despite the potential for POCUS to improve clinical care and increasing reports on the sonographic manifestations of COVID‐19, 5,6 the predictive utility of POCUS on clinical outcomes has yet to be determined. However, lung ultrasound (LUS) has already been shown to accurately diagnose a variety of disease states such as pneumothorax, pleural effusions, pneumonia, and interstitial lung disease 2,7 . Common pathological findings with LUS include B‐lines, consolidations, and pleural effusions (Figure 1).…”

“…Pleural effusion: (Figure 7) [9] Is best detected at the lung base in the posterolateral lung zone with a clear image of the diaphragm in the middle, liver/spleen underneath, and a dark anechoic (Black) fluid above the diaphragm with the lung tissue collapsed above. During lung inflation, the collapsed lung can be seen enhancing into the pleural fluid making a "curtain or jellyfish sign".…”
