Program Objectives
EDE Acute Care Core is an intense 1-day hands-on workshop is designed for participants to complete the practical training component of their introductory course in point-of-care ultrasound.
An online mandatory precourse must be completed before the course day so we can focus on maximum time at bedside with hands-on probe training. It is suggested to schedule a minimum of 10 hours to complete the precourse.
In this course, we will cover point-of-care detection of;
- Pericardial Effusions & Global Cardiac Contractility
- Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms
- Abdominal Free Fluid
- Pneumothorax
- Pleural Effusions
- Pulmonary Edema
