Our biblio analysis of SCImago Top5 ICM journals: 75% focused on “in ICU” phase of care. Some improvement in post-ICU representation. Huge dominance of infection/sepsis and resp/vent topics.
Timely considering @ICS_updates JLA PSP now.

Welcome to day 25 of #SCANUARY - thank you to my colleagues who have been flying #POCUS flag for last 24 days. Hello everyone, I am Emergency Medicine Consultant working in DGH near Glasgow and I have found #POCUS being absolutely amazing tool in my day to day working life. While teaching on multitude of courses over the years I have finished my PgDip in Medical Ultrasound and became West of Scotland Emergency Medicine Ultrasound Teaching lead.

We are in the last week of #Scanuary and we have @Katita1981 talking to us about how to scan aorta.
Its one the most useful scans in ED
Funfact: @Katita1981 has also been my teacher and examiner for my MSc in PoCUS. So she has wealth of experience

"Tan threads music like
a basso continuo...which hums beneath the clinical soundscape of
the hospital and the emotional tensions of confronting and combatting death."

Welcome to the 5th tweetorial of #Scanuary
I know yesterday's post was a bit dry so today we are going to make it more interesting
This is a 2 part post on LUS & interpretation
We're going to discuss
Is it #POCUS or is it Enhanced Examination with Ultrasound?
