Diagnostic Value of Portable Ultrasound for Dyspneic Patient Support in the Emergency Department — VSCAN-DYSP  

Dyspnea Clinical Trial

Official title:
Evaluation of the Diagnostic Value of Portable Ultrasound for Dyspneic Patient Support in the Emergency Department: a Randomized Study

Clinical Trial Summary

The main objective of our study is to compare the effects of two care strategies for dyspneic patients on the length of hospital stay: (1) standard care (=contextual analysis + conventional clinical chest radiography) versus (2) standard care + pleuropulmonary ultrasound.

Clinical Trial Description

The secondary objectives of this study are to assess the following for both arms:

A-fatality rate, B-degree of concordance between the diagnosis orientation in the emergency department and final diagnosis determined by an expert committee using patient records one month later (blind evaluation by a panel of experts) C-clinical improvement between early emergency care and later care outside the emergency department (clinical parameters = blood gases and other biological parameters) D-imaging parameters. ;

Study Design

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Parallel Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Prevention
