If a picture’s worth 1000 words then this cine loop’s a damn novella dedicated to the pathogenesis of hepatic hydrothorax 😍

disagree with this “triangle of saftey” nonsense

in morbid obesity or cardiomegaly, this location could be dangerous (eg, diaphragm can be really high)

so POCUS is key to establish anatomy before tube insertion

(and incidentally, ICU patients never look like this in real life 🙄) #EMIMCC

I love love LOVE scanning the heart 😍, but when it comes to bang for your buck for ultrasound novices, lung ultrasound is such a winner 🏆

It's time for another #POCUS basics #skeetorial 🧵

Let's talk about common pitfalls in #LungUltrasound and how to correct these ✔️

Please take a few minutes to do our survey if you have / look/ after people with COPD.
We're trying to find out what people think are the main issues around lung volume reduction procedures for people with COPD - we need input from as many healthcare professionals, people with COPD and their carers as possible

How accurate are we at choosing the optimal position for our patients when managing/treating atelectasis?

Lung ultrasound doesn't get the attention it should. It's a basic #POCUS application, but is game-changing in the evaluation of respiratory pathology; superior to CXR; and has a steep learning curve.

I created a starting pack for #POCUS peeps! Help me by sharing it and suggesting more people to add! It also contains the two feeds I created, for #echofirst and #pocus. go.bsky.app/EtZL9J6
