Prehospital point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a requirement for the treatment of critically ill patients. It is an essential component for physicians not only in hospital settings but also in prehospital settings. Recent technical progress has helped POCUS to be integrated into various prehospital emergency settings (Hermann et al. 2022). Prehospital care refers to the emergency medical care setting at any scene of a catastrophe. Evaluation of the situation and the medical resources needed will be determined by the emergency medical services (EMS) (Tjelmeland et al. 2020). There has been a great evolvement in the use of ultrasound in prehospital settings due to the growing evidence-based support and various technological advances. It is possible to identify life-threatening disorders if the POCUS and ultrasound examination are correctly performed
