Aiding COPD and CHF Ultrasound-guided Management Through ENhanced Point Of Care UltraSound (NCT05423652)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Single-center, two-arm, parallel, randomized controlled trial comparing enhanced daily assessments for patients with COPD and/or CHF using point of care ultrasound with PRESUNA software (POCUS-PRESUNA) versus standard care provided by home-based acute care through a tertiary acute care medical teaching hospital. The objectives are to evaluate POCUS-PRESUNA on improving patient experience, provider experience, improve healthcare utilization/costs, and to test the feasibility of incorporating longitudinal POCUS assessments in home-based acute care via remotely acquired images by non-physicians.
