Overview / Abstract: |
Pre-hospital ultrasound can be a valuable tool to rapidly diagnose a variety of conditions associated with trauma and/or critically ill patients. Pre-Hospital focused evaluation of the heart, lungs, and abdomen can provide a rapid and safe method to improve the time to diagnose and/or treat these patients resulting in increased patient safety, satisfaction, and over-all improved patient outcomes in time-sensitive situations. The Pre-Hospital Ultrasound Blended Training Course is specifically designed for physicians, PAs, EMS, Paramedics, sonographers and other medical professionals who will be involved with performing and/or interpreting pre-hospital/emergency ultrasound examinations. Begin with the self-paced online course: Taught by leading emergency medicine and critical care ultrasound experts, the online course incorporates comprehensive lectures, case presentations, and post-activity quizzes covering core and advanced ultrasound applications with fifteen (15) months unlimited access. Complete the online course from home, work, or even your mobile device at your convenience and still obtain the hands-on skills training to become confident and competent in performing Pre-Hospital Ultrasound exams. Then attend Scanning Skills Workshop: Join us in sunny St. Petersburg, FL for a One (1) Day (6 Hours) scanning skills workshop at our state-of-the-art facility. The extensive hands-on scanning skills workshop features the industry lowest 3:1 participant to faculty ratio allowing the participant to immediately integrate the skills learned into clinical practice. Hands-on skills training includes focused cardiac, trauma, DVT, ultrasound for shock & hypotension, ultrasound-guided peripheral vascular access, and more. For the best ultrasound education experience, completion of the online course prior to the hands-on scanning workshop is recommended. |
