UCM in the AFR, page-157

Uktion you write the following ... "Yes it could come to that point unfortunately. However, in most advanced countries like Australia, most patients, if not all, have pulmonary artery catheter inserted for monitoring haemodynamics. It is invasive and often times difficult (and has its drawbacks) but it is golden standard in most advanced countries so I doubt many countries will be quick to take up this new tech which is Uscom 1A while Covid-19 is wrecking havoc."
ON WHAT experience do you base that statement?
Are you a doctor with current experience in that area ?
USCOM has come a long, long way since those days. The USCOM 1A is hardly "new tech" as you state, and these days is considered the new gold standard.in most progressive hospitals around the world.
I would suggest the last thing any patient needs when under severe stress is a pulmonary artery catheter inserted for monitoring haemodynamics;
when better information can be obtained by a simple non-invasive measurement using an USCOM 1A - herein lies the value of this device.

AND YOU SAY NOTHING of the USCOM units immense value in TRIAGE - which is sorting and allocating aid on the basis of need at the point of admission. Can you not imagine how such a device increases the accuracy of judgments and removes judgmental stress when patients at risk of complications can be identified processed and tracked by their regular data readings.
The reality of Corona Virus is fear of the unknown. This causes confusion and confusion costs BIG money. A USCOM 1A device correctly used will remove much of the unknown and pay for its self in a very short time.
