This study was conducted to assess the methods used for head-and-neck point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS). Methods: This prospective survey study was conducted from 1 July 2018 to 31 December 2019. The surgeons of otolaryngology and head neck surgery who used POCUS in their daily practice were recruited for analyses. Results: In total, 30 male and 14 female surgeons who used neck POCUS were recruited. Thirty-nine (89%) surgeons placed patients in a supine position with the head toward the operator. Forty (91%) surgeons performed US-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA), and 35 (80%) surgeons did not use local anesthesia during US-FNA. Thirty-nine (88%) surgeons used the long-axis method to harvest the specimen, and forty-one (93%) used a free-hand method. Most surgeons (25, 57%) used 22G needles for US-FNA, and 29 (66%) used 18G for US-guided core-needle biopsy (CNB). For the cost analysis, reimbursements for US-related procedures were relatively cheaper than those for computer tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Conclusion: POCUS can be performed by otolaryngology and head and neck specialists with a wide scope of applications and in a cost-effective manner. |
