AT THE AAST ANNUAL MEETING
Invited discussant Nicholas Namias, MD, professor and chief of the division of acute care surgery at Jackson Memorial Hospital, Miami, said that the study by Dr. Morse and his associates “confirms what Dr. [Grace] Rozycki showed 20 years ago: Forget the [cardiac] box; it’s dead. Just throw an ultrasound probe on.”
Dr. Morse reported having no relevant financial disclosures.
