Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) Optional Workshop
Location (on campus): UVM SIM Lab, Burlington, VT
January 29, 8:00am-12:00pm

Point-of-care ultrasound has emerged as an important bedside tool in the management of acutely ill patients. This optional workshop will take place before the conference for an additional fee. It combines high-yield didactic sessions with hands-on training on live models. The workshop starts with a review of the basics of ultrasound technology and then dives into the myriad of diagnostic ultrasound applications: focused cardiac ultrasound; evaluation of pleural effusions, pneumothorax, renal and bladder pathologies and case based learning.

The course will be ideal for both beginners and more experienced providers to refine ultrasound skills. Expected faculty to attendee ratio is 1:3. This workshop, will need a minimum of 8-10 attendees with the maximum set at 18-20 attendees, so sign up early!
