Dr Nti gives an overview of the most common paediatric conditions he faces on a daily basis. One particular area of discussion is Lung ultrasound. Dr Nti discusses how the newly released clinical tools on the Venue Family help him address these paediatric conditions, specifically lung.
The first tool discussed is the Lung Diagram and how this allows him to ensure he covers each segment of the lung giving a whole picture of the lungs rather than searching for the individual images.
The second tool discussed is Lung Sweep, Dr Nti discusses how this panoramic view allows him to view all the pleural in 3 views, Anteriorly, Axillary and Posteriorly. Listen to how Dr Nti feels this tool helps him to diagnose pneumonia at the patient beside.
The Venue Family also has 2 further diagrams which have been beneficial to Dr Nti and his team, the renal diagram and the eFAST diagram.
