Dyspnoea in the Second Trimester- An Unexpected Diagnosis

Emergency Medicine

Research output: Contribution to conference › Poster › peer-review

Abstract

Common things occur commonly, but not always. Our case demonstrates that some clinical situations are not always as they seem. Point-of-care echocardiography by appropriately trained & skilled Emergency Physicians can distinguish similarly-appearing clinical conditions and effect a potentially life-saving change to treatment that otherwise may have missed the mark. Had this patient not been diagnosed early, outcomes could have been tragically different.
