Assessment of Exam Findings in Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) With Point-of-Care Ultrasonography (POCUS)

Completed

Conditions studied: Coronavirus Infection, COVID, Covid-19, SARS-CoV-2

In brief

Specific Aims: 1. The investigators will prospectively evaluate and analyze changes in the appearance of the lungs and heart through serial acquisition of focused point-of-care ultrasound images in a cohort of patients with or under investigation for COVID-19. 2. The investigators will correlate changes noted in ultrasound with clinical course and diagnostic evaluation to ascertain whether changes on ultrasound could improve care through earlier diagnosis or identification of patients at high risk of disease progression.
