Core Tip Bedside ultrasound provides fast, non-invasive evaluation for multisystem dysfunction in elderly frail patients. The study shows that diaphragm dysfunction and sarcopenia are independently predictive of anxiety and depression, with a demonstrated dose-response relationship that extends to pulmonary abnormalities diagnosed at the bedside by multimodal ultrasound. The use of early ultrasound-based risk stratification may allow for earlier psychosocial screening and targeted interventions in this high-risk population.
