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.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods and results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This prospective series included 16 patients aged 75 or older, hospitalized for acute dyspnoea in an acute geriatric unit of a university hospital and testing positive for a SARS-Cov2 infection. We collected demographic characteristics, medical history, biological screening, clinical symptoms, CUS findings (n = 16) and chest CT-scan conclusions (n = 14). Mean age was 89 years (77\u201397). All patients presented asthenia and dyspnoea, 56% complained of coughing and diarrhoea, and 50% had fever. Acute heart failure was clinically suspected in seven patients. At CUS, evidence of heart failure was confirmed in three patients (including one without clinical suspicion); interstitial syndrome was confirmed in 12 patients on CUS vs. 9 patients with CT.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In older patients with COVID-19 and acute dyspnoea, the use of point-of-care CUS allowed the clinician to quickly rule out heart failure in nearly half of suspected cases while easily identifying virus-related interstitial syndrome. The use of CUS appears to be suitable for the rapid bedside investigation of dyspnoea in older patients, particularly in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ehf2.13017","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,13]],"date-time":"2020-10-13T10:14:08Z","timestamp":1602584048000},"page":"4424-4428","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Bedside Chest Ultrasound to Distinguish Heart Failure from Pneumonia-Related Dyspnoea in Older COVID-19 Patients"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"7","author":[{"given":"Arthur","family":"Hacquin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geriatrics and Internal Medicine, Hospital of Champmaillot, Dijon University Hospital , Dijon ,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sophie","family":"Putot","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geriatrics and Internal Medicine, Hospital of Champmaillot, Dijon University Hospital , Dijon ,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J\u00e9r\u00e9my","family":"Barben","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geriatrics and Internal Medicine, Hospital of Champmaillot, Dijon University Hospital , Dijon ,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric","family":"Chagu\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Dijon University Hospital , Dijon ,","place":["France"]},{"name":"EA7460, Physiopathologie et Epid\u00e9miologie C\u00e9r\u00e9brovasculaires, University of Burgundy Franche-Comt\u00e9 , Dijon ,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Marianne","family":"Zeller","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"EA7460, Physiopathologie et Epid\u00e9miologie C\u00e9r\u00e9brovasculaires, University of Burgundy Franche-Comt\u00e9 , Dijon ,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yves","family":"Cottin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Cardiology, Dijon University Hospital , Dijon ,","place":["France"]},{"name":"EA7460, Physiopathologie et Epid\u00e9miologie C\u00e9r\u00e9brovasculaires, University of Burgundy Franche-Comt\u00e9 , Dijon ,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Patrick","family":"Manckoundia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geriatrics and Internal Medicine, Hospital of Champmaillot, Dijon University Hospital , Dijon ,","place":["France"]},{"name":"INSERM U-1093, Cognition, Action and Motricit\u00e9, University of Burgundy Franche-Comt\u00e9 , Dijon ,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4408-554X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alain","family":"Putot","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Geriatrics and Internal Medicine, Hospital of Champmaillot, Dijon University Hospital , Dijon ,","place":["France"]},{"name":"EA7460, Physiopathologie et Epid\u00e9miologie C\u00e9r\u00e9brovasculaires, University of Burgundy Franche-Comt\u00e9 , Dijon ,","place":["France"]}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,10,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"2026012115025914000_ehf213017-bib-0001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"639","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jinf.2020.03.019","article-title":"Coronavirus disease 2019 in elderly patients: characteristics and prognostic factors based on 4-week follow-up","volume":"80","author":"Wang","year":"2020","journal-title":"J Infect"},{"key":"2026012115025914000_ehf213017-bib-0002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"926","DOI":"10.1111\/jgs.16472","article-title":"COVID-19 and Older Adults: What We Know","volume":"68","author":"Shahid","year":"2020","journal-title":"J Am Geriatr Soc"},{"key":"2026012115025914000_ehf213017-bib-0003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1407","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm9051407","article-title":"Impact of COVID-19 on the cardiovascular system: a review","volume":"9","author":"Matsushita","year":"2020","journal-title":"JCM"},{"key":"2026012115025914000_ehf213017-bib-0004","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1372","DOI":"10.1164\/rccm.202003-0543OC","article-title":"Clinical features of 85 fatal cases of COVID-19 from Wuhan: a retrospective observational study","volume":"201","author":"Du","year":"2020","journal-title":"Am J Respir Crit Care Med"},{"key":"2026012115025914000_ehf213017-bib-0005","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"427","DOI":"10.1038\/nrcardio.2017.56","article-title":"Acute Heart Failure Study Group of the European Society of Cardiology Acute Cardiovascular Care Association.
