Vascular - Left femoral DVT
Caption
A 45-year-old female presented to the ED with chest pain, dyspnea, and evidence of shock. Our FOCUS cardiac exam was notable for acute pulmonary hypertension. Subsequently using our multi-organ approach we identified evidence of a DVT (linear probe on the proximal left leg reveals hyperechoic material within the non-compressible femoral vein). Diagnosis of pulmonary thromboembolism secondary to VTE causing obstructive shock was immediately confirmed at the bedside.
