Multiple point‐of‐care US protocols have been proposed for the rapid diagnosis of undifferentiated shock.
The Rapid Ultrasound in SHock (RUSH) exam is a stepwise resuscitative US protocol developed in 2010 that incorporates many of the core US principles proposed and validated in prior studies (Table 4.5).
The RUSH exam simplifies bedside physiologic assessment into three steps: evaluation of ‘the pump,’ ‘the tank,’ and ‘the pipes.’

Figure 4.1 Probe types. (A) Linear. (B) Phased array. (C) Large curvilinear.
Figure 4.2 Standard bedside ECHO views. (A) Parasternal long axis, systole; aortic valve open, MV closed. (B) Parasternal short axis, mid‐papillary muscle level. (C) Apical four chamber view. (D) Subxiphoid view.
Figure 4.3 Right ventricular strain. RV size exceeds LV size; RV pressure flattens or bows interventricular septum into LV during diastole (apical four chamber window).
Figure 4.4 IVC transitions into RA to confirm visualization of IVC versus abdominal aorta.
Figure 4.5 M‐mode chest with ‘seashore’ signal. The thicker first horizontal line (arrow) is the pleural line. Above the pleural line are (normal) horizontal lines due to the chest wall. Below the pleural line, where the lung is present, note the ‘sandy’ appearance diagnostic of lung sliding. Lung sliding rules out a complete pneumothorax.
Figure 4.6 M‐mode chest with the ‘barcode’ or ‘stratosphere’ sign. The thicker first horizontal line is the pleural line. Above the pleural line are (normal) horizontal lines due to the chest wall. Below the pleural line, where the lung should be present, note the (abnormal) presence of straight horizontal lines indicating an absence of lung sliding. Absent lung sliding may indicate a pneumothorax or intact lung with pleurodesis.
Figure 4.7 Pleural effusion. Anechoic fluid (F) surrounding lung (Lu). Note the diaphragm and liver (Li) below. In a real time video, the lung will move dynamically within the anechoic fluid. This is called ‘lung flapping.’
Figure 4.8 Pulmonary edema. Note the vertical lines (B‐lines) descending from the pleural line (arrow) and continuing to the end of the screen.
