General approach to learning point-of-care ultrasound
Differences between ultrasound approaches
Traditional ultrasound
-Experts in ultrasound
-Comprehensive exams (A-Z)
-Multiple ultrasound views
-Multiple imaging modes
-Exam time approx. 20-30 mins
-Advanced interpretation
Ex-Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Point-of-care ultrasound
-Traditional/non-traditional users
-Answer single clinical question
-Single ultrasound view
-Single imaging mode
-Exam time approx. 1-2 mins
-Simple interpretation
Ex- abnormal left ventricular function
Learning point-of-care ultrasound
Acquisition
-Understanding which transducer to use and why
This can include basic physics introduction
-Understanding how to acquire an ultrasound view(s)
Some items include:
Probe position
Probe marker/orientation
Patient position
-Which structures should be seen within a view
Learning point-of-care ultrasound
Interpretation
-Normal values for structures
-Basic function
-Artifacts
Examples of point-of-care ultrasound
