Description:
Ultrasound workshop – Part 1
“Progress POCUS” is aimed at completion of the ACEM ultrasound credentialing process for FACEMs, fellows and trainees. Experts in ultrasound will be present to proctor your scans as well as carry out formative and summative assessments for eFAST, AAA, Lung and Focused Echo In Life Support (FLES). Proctored scans can be entered into your logbook (for hospital credentialing or for CCPU purposes) where up to 50% of logbook cases can be “non-clinically” indicated.

Ultrasound workshop – Part 2
SLICE protocol (aka the “quick and easy” RUSH protocol). This ultrasound session will workshop a stepwise approach to using POCUS in the assessment of the shocked or SOB patient. There will then be practice with real-time feedback to make the most of this essential skill, as well as the opportunity for summative assessment and competency assessment for those that wish to do so.
