Résumé
In the older population, acute heart failure is a frequent, life-threatening complication of COVID-19 that requires urgent specific care. We aimed to explore the impact of point-of-care chest ultrasound (CUS) use in older bedridden inpatients during the COVID-19 pandemic as a tool to distinguish between cardiogenic pulmonary oedema and isolated viral pneumonia-related dyspnoea.
