Point-of-care ultrasound in the evaluation of STEMI patients

By Wainstein MV, Machado GP, Telo GH, Silveira ADd, Nasi LA and Araujo GNd (2025). Front. Cardiovasc. Med. 12:1627396. doi: 10.3389/fcvm.2025.1627396

There was a mistake in Figure 1 as published. Figure 1 currently contain the FASTEMI logo, that overlap with material included in another manuscript from our group that is still under submission elsewhere. Our team is concerned that this overlap could potentially affect copyright considerations if that manuscript is accepted. The corrected Figure 1 appears below.

Figure 1
POCUS in STEMI infographic illustrates the use of Point of care ultrasound in STEMI. Sections include Lung Ultrasound (LUS) and LUCK classification for in-hospital mortality, LUS for cardiogenic shock, Incorporation of LVOT-VTI and LUV classification, and FASTEMI protocol for systematic evaluation. Arrows and icons highlight the integration of these assessment tools.

There was a mistake in Figure 4 as published. Figure 4 currently contain elements that overlap with material included in another manuscript from our group that is still under submission elsewhere. Our team is concerned that this overlap could potentially affect copyright considerations if that manuscript is accepted. The corrected Figure 4 appears below.

Figure 4
Diagram showing a central human heart with ultrasound waves, connected by arrows to images illustrating associated conditions. These include lung ultrasound and inferior vena cava, LVOT VTI, pericardial effusion, severe aortic or mitral regurgitation, ventricular septal rupture, and right and left ventricular dysfunction. Each condition is labeled beneath its respective image.
