 s before the course. Call to register if less than or equal to 7 days 
 from course date.\n\nObjectives & Topics\n\nAt the completion of this 
 program, the participant should be able to:\n• Discuss the fundament
 als of U/S physics & instrumentation.\n• Explain the advantages of u
 sing ultrasound-guided nerve block techniques.\n• Identify the topog
 raphic and cross-sectional brachial plexus anatomy.\n• Demonstrate i
 maging techniques for performing ultrasound-guided upper extremities a
 nesthesia using interscalene, supraclavicular, infraclavicular, axilla
 ry and forearm nerve blocks on live models.\n• Demonstrate imaging t
 echniques for performing ultrasound-guided lower extremity anesthesia 
 using femoral, popliteal and ankle nerve blocks on live models.\n• L
 ist the indications and applications for performing ultrasound-guided 
 central venous catheter placement and apply skills using inanimate pha
 ntoms.\n• Optional: Perform ultrasound-guided injection techniques o
 n human cadaver specimens.\n• Increase the participants’ knowledge
  to better perform ultrasoundguided regional anesthesia procedures.\n\
