: The study was approved by the institutional review board at Stanford University (Protocol ID 64029) with a waiver of informed consent. Lung ultrasounds were performed for clinical or educational indications, and imaging logs were captured in an institutional RedCap database as part of our POCUS team’s quality assurance and quality improvement (QI) processes. The POCUS QI initiative was also approved by the institutional review board at Stanford University with a waiver for consent (Protocol ID 54559). Additional chart review was performed for clinical variables 24 h prior to any discontinuation attempt, as well as to determine outcomes of discontinuation attempts, as this information was not included in the POCUS QI RedCap database.
