Ettinger 9th Edition Webinar Shorts – Vet BLUE® and Its Clinical Use of Dry Lung ALL Vet BLUE® Views – Weak Positives Count! The previous and next webinar Vet BLUE® 03 and 05 review the Vet BLUE® B-line Scoring System and its clinical implications that are truly unique to veterinary medicine.
Vet BLUE® Dry Lung All Vet BLUE® Views is hugely clinically impactful by ruling out all clinically-relevant “wet lung” conditions including left-sided CHF (CPE, cardiogenic pulmonary edema), all forms of non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema (NCPE), pneumonia, lung hemorrhage and contusions in trauma. We like to say “wet lung” is “water (CPE, NCPE), blood (hemorrhage in coagulopathic cases, contusions in trauma), or pus (pneumonias).” If you THINK that Vet BLUE® Missed a “wet lung” condition, then repeat the Vet BLUE® 2-6 hours later, during next patient rounds, or the next day on a recheck exam.
