“Asymptomatic” Flash Pulmonary Edema by Point-of-Care Ultrasound: A Novel Bedside Finding of Transient Global Ischemia

A 65-year-old man with remitted chest pain and no tachypnea was taken urgently to catheterization because of diffuse lung ultrasound B-lines on bedside examination. He was found to have severe left-main disease. This case emphasizes the value of ultrasound to recognize acute cardiogenic interstitial...
