简要总结
This is a prospective cohort study that describes focused lung ultrasound (FLUS) findings in patients presenting with symptoms of an acute lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in general practice in Denmark.
Ten general practitioners (GPs) will perform FLUS in addition to their usual care of adults presenting with symptoms of an acute LRTI where the GP suspects a community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Eligible patients will consecutively be invited to participate during a two months' study period until each GP has included a total of ten patients. The GPs will register information about patients including age, gender, symptoms, clinical findings, results of any point-of-care test performed, if antibiotic treatment was prescribed and they will register information on FLUS performance and findings.
