Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if pediatric emergency medicine providers can accurately diagnose a hip effusion using point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) compared to radiology ultrasound (RADUS).


Clinical Trial Description

The purpose of this study is to determine that the accuracy of trained pediatric emergency medicine providers to diagnose hip effusion using point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is non-inferior to the reference standard of radiology ultrasound (RADUS). Additionally, the investigators seek to compare how POCUS performs against other clinical tests or investigations for the diagnosis of septic arthritis. The investigators hypothesize that trained EM providers will be able to diagnose hip effusions with high (>90%) accuracy compared to studies conducted by the Department of Radiology. ;
