Did you know physio’s aren’t always selecting appropriate positioning for patients with lobar atelectasis using traditional respiratory assessment tools? Lung ultrasound could help change this! sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Benefits of adding 🫁 ultrasound in physio practice….CXR showed minor L) lower lobe opacity…LUS completed….demonstrated huge consolidation entire L) lower lobe resulting in chest physio, ⬆️ PEEP and Abx #POCUS #ICU #Physio #Respisbest

Great opportunity to think about how we can approach Rx of MSK patients with trauma-informed lenses! Interesting considerations for clinicians beyond the MSK space to adopt a trauma-informed model too medbridge.com/course-catalog… #traumainformedcare #wellbeing #evidencebasedpractice

Pleased to share our recent publication: a SR & MA exploring the use of diaphragm and lung ultrasound in acute respiratory physio practice and the impact on clinical decision-making. @annabel__love @FionLau7 @Lou_Hansell @georgentou1 #POCUS #physio #ICU aus01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%…

Happy World Physio Day! NSLHD has some pretty rockin’ physio’s. In our RNSH department, we have research spanning lots of clinical areas (Resp, Spinals, Hands, MSK just to name a few). Proud to be contributing to research in the district in the physio-led LUS space 🫁 #LUS #POCUS

Pleased to share our report on implementing physio-led LUS in the ICU @georgentou1 #POCUS #ICU #physio #respisbest pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37356914/

Lots of requests for a copy of my thesis...Happy reading! hdl.handle.net/2123/30141

Beyond excited to have reached the end point of a 5 year labour of love🎓Motivated to continue growing lung ultrasound for acute physiotherapists to guide treatment selection & monitor treatment impact. Fabulous supervisors to top it all off @mareemilross @georgentou1

A fantastic physio cohort from across Australia learning the ropes #LUS

What a great day teaching a great bunch of Physio’s all about #LUS with @georgentou1
