Happy new year all.
I am a ED US director and we are in the market for a new ultrasound. The main reason for this is to make the process easier to do E-FAST exams. We have a few issues with an older ultrasound as the process is too complicated for it to be done correctly, getting the images linked to PACS and Epic, in addition to the resolution being poor.
Does anyone have a particular ultrasound you use that has worked out well, the process for doing FAST exams is easy and straightforward, preferably that you can do the scan without having to put an order into Epic or just scan a wristband? Would anyone be willing to share the process/workflow they use for FAST exams?
We are a trauma center and doing FAST exams in particular is important for our credentialing/maintaining trauma status.
Thanks for any and all help.
