Seems to have been a quiet week on the news front…

so will keep the wrap up short and sweet.

Highlights of the week:

• The October Issue of Family Medicine (the official journal of the US based Society of Teachers of Family Medicine) released a special edition focused on POCUS (9 October)
• Learn the serratus anterior plane block with Matt Tabbut from MetroHealth Emergency Ultrasound (8 October)

The weekend is calling!

Keep your probes clean and the gel warm.
