“Urinary Retention: How POCUS Helped This Patient Skip the ER” — Southern Medicine Podcast is Now Available

In this episode of the "Southern Medicine Podcast", Tatiana Havryliuk, MD, and Randy Glick, BSB/PM, MCP explore how a quick bladder scan can streamline care, reduce costs, and improve patient comfort as they discuss a case in which a patient with BPH presented to his PCP with progressive urinary hesitancy and suprapubic pain. Using point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS), his provider identified a significant post-void residual volume and managed his condition on-site, saving him a trip to the emergency department.
