Echo & Ultrasound in Shock

Lectures

This webinar will cover the basics of point-of-care focused echocardiography

A series of lectures covering BSE Level 1 and more advanced echo - a truly incredible resource by Dr Richard Fisher!

An excellent series from the Nepean ICU team (Sydney) - arguably the best advanced critical care echo resource out there! Particularly useful for any BSE Level 2/ACCE candidates.

Now that we have several #VExUS #POCUS resources from different educators, I'm going to put them together as a thread and pin to my profile #IMPOCUS #FOAMed
