ICU Studies - Refresher:

Are you using the IVC diameter to "predict" if an ICU patient is "fluid responsive" (FR)?

This was an important multi-center descriptive study conducted during a 2-yr period in 5 French ICUs

540 ventilated patients w shock of various origins underwent

Comparison of 6 handhelds by 35 #POCUS experts. Best image quality: Vscan Air for RUQ. Mindray for cardiac. Lumify for superficial. No handheld #1 but Vscan Air preferred. Top 5 features: image quality, ease of use, portability, probe size, battery life. https://t.co/KABV8frpbo

Thank you to the many thousands of people across the whole of the NHS & social care who helped deliver the care during the pandemic. Has been a strange and difficult day. But felt it was important to give witness to some small part of the enormity of the challenge we all faced.

Very happy to share our first paper from NEAT-ECHO published in @yourICM.

🏥 178 ICUs & 1015 shocked patients
🫀 54% received an echo
💉 50% of echos altered management
📋 25% followed guidelines

How many UK centres have the facilities to offer this sort of state-of-the-art management? #postcodelottery
