Dear ACIPC brains trust,
I am in the midst of collating all COVID-19 resources specific for ultrasound practitioners.
Is there anything out there that hospitals are currently using that would be of use?I’ve put together some basic protocols incorporating PPE, hand hygiene, reprocessing the probe based on the Spaulding classification, cleaning the entire ultrasound unit etc but before I finalise this document, wondering if there was anything else of use from your connections?
I’d love to support our doctors and sonographers out there diagnosing the disease using lung ultrasound.
Thanks in advance everyone,Be safe and well,
Kind regards
