SUMMARY:Emergency Medicine Ultrasound/ Point of Care Ultrasound
DESCRIPTION:The “Golden Hour” is one of the pillars of emergency m
 edicine. Capitalize on the speed and accuracy of ultrasound to take ad
 vantage of every minute. Having the skills to evaluate the abdomen (th
 e FAST procedure), first trimester pregnancy and cardiac ultrasound ma
 y make the difference between life and death!  Participants in this c
 ourse will benefit from “hands on scan labs” where you will practi
 ce the essential skills and techniques to acquire an ultrasound image 
 for quick and accurate diagnosis.\nAHEC has taught this course for phy
 sicians in the US, China, and South America. This two day course begin
 s both days with lecture where faculty will review the basics such as:
  ultrasound physics and instrumentation, anatomy, and procedures and p
 rotocols. Following lecture, participants will benefit from our on-sit
 e scanning lab with live models for extensive hands-on practice. The c
 ourse content is based on ACEP guidelines for the performance on Emerg
 ency Medicine Ultrasound.\nScan with the experts\nSometimes it takes a
 n additional day or two of scanning to generate confidence in your new
  skill set.  If you would like to add a day or two, all our ultrasoun
 d skills courses can be scheduled with additional scan days in our sta
 te of the art interactive scan lab.  Give us a call and discuss your 
 needs with our faculty so we can help you achieve your goals.\nObjecti
 ves\nAt the completion of this course, the learner will be able to:\n\

 for different ultrasound applications\nIdentify and display appropriat
 e normal and abnormal anatomy and orientation in the ultrasound field
