Point-of-care lung ultrasonography for early identification of mild COVID-19: a prospective cohort of outpatients in a Swiss screening center by Olivier Hugli, Jean-Yves Meuwly, Noémie Boillat-Blanco, Pierre-Nicolas Carron, Siméon Schaad, Thomas Brahier, Mary-Anne Hartley, Jean-Baptiste Cordonnier, Luca Bosso, Tanguy Espejo, Olivier Pantet

“…Abnormal LUS findings were significantly more frequent in COVID-19 positive compared with COVID-19 negative (45% vs 26%, p=0.045) and mostly consisted of focal pathologic B lines. Combining clinical findings in a multivariate logistic regression score had an area under the receiver operating curve of 80.3% to detect COVID-19, and slightly improved to 84.5% with the addition of LUS features.Conclusions COVID-19-positive patients are significantly more likely to have lung pathology by LUS. …”
