Advanced Ultrasound in Trauma and Life Support Course
31 October, 2018
Background
Care of critically ill and injured victims is challenging in pre-hospital, emergency department and intensive care settings. It becomes more difficult when you perform trauma resuscitation and advanced cardiac life support protocols in a blinded fashion. Point of care ultrasound has been typically described as an extension of the palpating hand and a “visual” stethoscope during the physical examination, providing both anatomic and functional information complementary to the routine physical examination.
