Gaspari RJ, et al. - Researchers investigated if lower clinical failure rates are achieved in patients treated with point-of-care ultrasonography and incision and drainage compared with those who undergo incision and drainage after physical examination alone. In a prospective randomized clinical trial, they enrolled a total of 125 patients, 63 randomized to the point-of-care ultrasonography group and 62 to physical examination alone. Outcomes support the premise that patients with soft tissue abscesses undergoing incision and drainage with point-of-care ultrasonography demonstrate less clinical failure compared with those treated without point-of-care ultrasonography.
