Point-of-care (POC) ultrasound is clinically useful for (1) cardiac, (2) pulmonary, (3) hemodynamic, (4) abdominal, (5) airway, (6) vascular access, and (7) intracranial pressure assessment
-
This study developed a novel perioperative POC ultrasound curriculum (Focused periOperative Risk Evaluation Sonography Involving Gastroabdominal Hemodynamic and Transthoracic ultrasound) for resident training and assessed the utility of a model/simulation-based education strategy for training anesthesiology residents on this curriculum
-
This study highlights that a novel “whole-body” POC ultrasound examination (Focused periOperative Risk Evaluation Sonography Involving Gastroabdominal Hemodynamic and Transthoracic ultrasound) can be taught to anesthesiology residents using a model/simulation-guided curriculum, and with this appropriate training, one can impact clinical management of patients in the perioperative setting
