S3 E4: The RTI surge song, NICE depression or not, Long Covid guidance, balloon bariatric surgery

Om avsnittet

Welcome back to another Hot Topics podcast from NB Medical with Dr Neal Tucker.

Everyone in his family has a cold - is this the anticipated surge in respiratory tract infections we've expected to see or could it have a simpler explanation?

We also look at the new draft Depression guideline from NICE, asking can we deliver the promises, long covid guidance in the knowledge we can't and new data on the effectiveness of inflatable intragastric balloon bariatric surgery.
