COURSE DESCRIPTION

This course focusses on introducing the concept of point-of-care ultrasound for trauma, triage, tracking, treatment & total systemic evaluation (the 5 T’s of POCUS) to the general small animal practitioner (even without any experience with ultrasound). The specialists will show how point-of-care ultrasound differs from the complete ultrasonographic examination performed by diagnostic imaging specialists and how any small animal practitioner can acquire the necessary skills to use point-of-care ultrasound in everyday practice. The theory is covered via 8 hours of online lectures (available on-demand) and covers the following topics that have conveniently been split up into four 2-hour sessions:

The Essentials of Point-of-Care Ultrasound
Abdominal Point-of-Care Ultrasound Examinations
How to Examine the Lung & Pleural Spaces
Pneumothorax, Pleural Effusion & Lung Pathology
Cardiac Ultrasound Made Easy!
Vascular Ultrasound – Estimating Fluid Status, Fluid Responsiveness & Fluid Overload
Point-of-Care Ultrasound Case-Discussions & Self-Assessment
All sessions will include pre- and post-lecture cine loop interpretations to demonstrate participant learning and confidence building throughout the course.
