<p begin="00:00:07.442" end="00:00:09.589" style="s2">- [Voiceover] A linear<br />array transducer is used</p>
<p begin="00:00:09.589" end="00:00:13.774" style="s2">to evaluate lung sliding as<br />an extension of the FAST exam.</p>
<p begin="00:00:13.774" end="00:00:16.420" style="s2">The orientation marker is<br />positioned in the direction</p>
<p begin="00:00:16.420" end="00:00:18.065" style="s2">of the patient's head.</p>
<p begin="00:00:18.065" end="00:00:21.277" style="s2">The transducer is placed in<br />a long access orientation</p>
<p begin="00:00:21.277" end="00:00:23.204" style="s2">over the anterior chest wall</p>
<p begin="00:00:23.204" end="00:00:25.921" style="s2">at the third or fourth intercostal space</p>
<p begin="00:00:25.921" end="00:00:29.921" style="s2">in the interior axillary<br />to mid-clavicular line.</p>
<p begin="00:00:34.764" end="00:00:37.763" style="s2">The ribs are identified in<br />the near field of the image</p>
<p begin="00:00:37.763" end="00:00:41.324" style="s2">as bright interface<br />with a posterior shadow.</p>
<p begin="00:00:41.324" end="00:00:42.910" style="s2">The plural line is identified</p>
<p begin="00:00:42.910" end="00:00:47.099" style="s2">as a bright hyperechoic line<br />between the rib shadows.</p>
<p begin="00:00:47.099" end="00:00:50.068" style="s2">The to and fro sliding<br />movement of the visceral plural</p>
<p begin="00:00:50.068" end="00:00:52.233" style="s2">against the parietal plural with breathing</p>
