Ultrasound Workshop
DescriptionThis course will introduce image acquisition methods, ultrasound techniques, and clinical applications of point of care ultrasound in neurocritical care. We will employ a flipped classroom style in which participants will review a pre-recorded didactic lectures that expand upon the principles of ultrasound image capture and clinical applications for echocardiography, lung ultrasound, and abdominal ultrasound. In-person hands-on sessions will be led by ultrasound specialists with experience in medical education techniques. Participants will learn how to acquire and troubleshoot image acquisition for high quality images. Ultrasound pathology observed in echocardiography, inferior vena cava evaluations, lung ultrasound, and abdominal ultrasound that are pertinent to cardiopulmonary assessments in critical care will be reviewed. Each participant should be able to perform focused heart, lung, and abdominal ultrasounds for evaluation of shock or respiratory failure by the end of this session.
