POCUS in ICU: Insights and Challenges with Dr. Segun Olusanya

I think the role of the intensive care nurse may have been overlooked and dismissed, not just by the general public, because it's all about the doctors, but also by other nursing colleagues who are like: oh, you only have one patient to deal with All Day.
Ever wondered how Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) can make a difference in an ICU setting? Mark Hudson sits down with Dr. Segun Olusanya, a POCUS expert, to chat about its significance and practical benefits. This episode of 'ICU Chronicles' goes beyond the technicalities, diving into the daily realities of working in the ICU. Dr. Olusanya shares his firsthand experiences, from the challenges faced by healthcare workers to the crucial role of family support during recovery.
He also sheds light on mental health issues in the healthcare sector, discussing moral distress and the need for systemic changes to support medical professionals better. Whether you're a healthcare worker, a patient, or someone with a loved one in the ICU, this conversation offers valuable insights into the complexities of ICU care and the tools that can improve patient outcomes.
