Dr Henrik Sjöström, Head of the Department of Anaesthesiology, was elected to the Board of the ICAN section (Intensive Care Medicine, Surgery, Anaesthesiology, Emergency Medicine) of the SGUM.

The Swiss Society for Ultrasound in Medicine (SGUM) is the umbrella organisation for all those involved in the use of ultrasound in medicine. On behalf of the FMH, it is responsible for the various certificates of competence in sonography, POCUS, pregnancy sonography and hip sonography.

The ICAN section is responsible for further education and training and for ensuring the quality of examinations in the fields of intensive care medicine, surgery, anaesthesiology and emergency medicine.
Dr Sjöström is responsible for ultrasound-guided regional anaesthesia and vascular punctures.

Dr Sjöström has also been elected to the POCUS training committee of the SGUM.

We are delighted that Bethesda Hospital is so prominently represented on these important committees throughout Switzerland and wish Dr Henrik Sjöström every success.
