Zeyn Mahomed is a South African academic clinician in Emergency Medicine, affiliated with Johannesburg’s academic emergency departments. Research spans emergency care systems, point-of-care ultrasound, infectious disease preparedness, and complex acute presentations. Work reflects a strong commitment to improving frontline diagnosis, patient safety, and clinical governance within resource-constrained settings.

Publications highlight expertise in PoCUS for time-critical vascular and cardiac emergencies, as well as rare but high-risk conditions including purulent pericarditis, foreign body aspiration, and jugulotympanic paraganglioma. Contributions also address viral haemorrhagic fever readiness and hypoxia-related physiology, demonstrating interdisciplinary engagement that bridges emergency care, infectious diseases, and translational diagnostics.

Further scholarship examines adverse event reporting, trauma patterns such as dog-bite injuries, and digital medical education through FOAM, underscoring strengths in quality improvement and educational innovation. Collectively, this body of work advances emergency medicine practice in Africa and supports evidence-based, contextually relevant clinical protocols.
