A case report of lung ultrasound missing a pneumothorax due to patient positioning.

David Schrift1, Keith Barron1, Michael Wagner1, Rohan Arya1.   

Abstract

Lung ultrasound is increasingly utilized as a diagnostic tool for the detection of a pneumothorax. The effect of small changes in patient positioning on the accuracy of lung ultrasound to detect a pneumothorax is not well studied. We present the first known case of lung ultrasound missing a pneumothorax because of suboptimal patient positioning, and discuss the implications of our findings for clinicians that utilize lung ultrasound and for future research.
