Emergency Medicine Ultrasound Critical Care Ultrasound “Right Care, Right Now” best describes ultrasound applications that can help physicians make improved and more timely decisions. The concept of Critical Care Ultrasound has evolved with the availability of high quality mobile ultrasound devices, in combination with an increasing number of physicians who understand the importance of point-of-care ultrasound skills to help manage patients in “critical” situations. Don’t miss this focused three day workshop that will provide you the knowledge and skill to perform to perform these life saving procedures. The course will begin with “need to know” information for image acquisition and interpretation integrated with real time scanning with models and focused case studies. Some of the topics covered include the Extended FAST procedure for trauma evaluation, Line placement, and evaluation of unstable hemodynamics, intra-thoracic and intra-abdominal fluid collections, bedside echocardiography, soft tissue evaluation and diagnosis of DVT. Register now, registration is limited to maximize the value of the hands on scanning experiences. Objectives At the completion of the course, the learner will be able to: • Describe the ultrasound applications that improve patient care in the critically ill patient. • Demonstrate the knowledge required to acquire and optimize the ultrasound image. • Explain the orientation to human anatomy and the relationship to the Ultrasound probe • Demonstrate probe preparation for invasive procedures. • Improve patient procedural safety by using ultrasound for line placement • Perform an ultrasound evaluation for diagnosis of DVT’s • Complete and evaluate an Extended FAST ultrasound procedure for trauma assessment • Complete and evaluate a bedside echocardiography ultrasound evaluation • Perform lung sonography for the evaluation of pneumothorax, pleural effusion and acute respiratory distress. • Complete an ocular ultrasound for the evaluation of CNS and optic nerve sheath diameter • Recognize normal and abnormal sonographic anatomy in the eye, chest, abdomen, soft tissue and extremities. • Demonstrate and apply ultrasound guided vascular access on an ultrasound phantom. Course Topics • Ultrasound Physics and Equipment Instrumentation • Acquisition and Optimization of the Ultrasound Image • Clinical Application of the Extended FAST Procedure • Ultrasound Imaging of Solid Organ Injuries • Medical Indications for Lung Sonography • Clinical Applications for Ocular Ultrasound • Soft Tissue Evaluation of MSK Injuries • Fundamentals of Bedside Echocardiography • Scanning the Aorta and Heart • Evaluation of DVT’s • Vascular Access Tips and Techniques • Physician presented focused case studies Register @ www.AHEConline.com Target Audience Emergency Medicine physicians, Trauma Surgeons, Critical Care Nurses, CCU nurses, Internal Medicine physicians who perform ultrasound exams in surgery or the ED.
