Overview

Cross-sectional survey evaluates POCUS perceptions, competency, and barriers among pediatricians in Poland, indicating improvement areas for practice integration.

Key Points

  • Point-of-care ultrasound is increasingly recognized as a diagnostic tool in pediatrics, yet usage remains limited in Poland.
  • Only 21.9% of pediatricians frequently use POCUS, highlighting a significant gap in routine practice.
  • Formal training and institutional support are major barriers preventing wider implementation of POCUS in pediatric care.
  • A focus on developing a comprehensive training framework is needed to enhance POCUS integration in clinical settings.
