Abstract：
BACKGROUND: The extensive availability of ultrasound (US) technology has increased its use for point-of-care applications in many health care settings. During anaesthesia and surgery, acute respiratory failure or pulmonary oedema are common life-threatening events that, if not recognized and treated appropriately, result in a high mortality rate.
METHODS: We report a patient under anaesthesia whose lung US examination showed multiple vertical artefacts (B-lines) in the lung tissue, indicating pulmonary oedema. The respiratory state improved with the resolution of the pulmonary oedema after our treatment.
CONCLUSIONS: We believe that US of the lungs may be a useful tool for dynamic respiratory monitoring at the bedside during anaesthesia.

摘要：
背景：超声（US）技术的广泛可用性增加了其在许多医疗保健环境中对即时护理应用的使用。在麻醉和手术期间，急性呼吸衰竭或肺水肿是常见的危及生命的事件，如果没有得到适当的承认和对待，导致高死亡率。
方法：我们报告了一名患者在麻醉下，其肺部超声检查显示肺组织中有多个垂直伪影（B线），提示肺水肿.治疗后，随着肺水肿的消退，呼吸状态得到改善。
结论：我们认为肺部超声可能是麻醉期间床边动态呼吸监测的有用工具。
