Abstract
Abstract Point of care ultrasound (POCUS) can make an expedited diagnosis, which might lead to early correct management. POCUS should be used in a systemic and integrated approach to evaluate multiple organs in patients with sepsis and septic shock. We present a rare case of sepsis due to nontyphoidal Salmonella endocarditis with splenic abscess in which a multiorgan POCUS examination led to expedited treatment.
