Current Challenges in Point of Care Ultrasound (PoCUS): Considerations for Training, Education, and Clinical Practice (1 Class A CE)

Saturday, February 15, 2025
7:30 AM – 8:30 AM MT
Location: Lobby Level- Canyon I-IV
The goal of this learning session is to discuss the current state of the science supporting the use of PoCUS in anesthesia and the need for development of competency and practice standards. This panel discussion will provide the learner with an insight from experts in PoCUS on topics ranging from current challenges to the need for a national consensus practice standards specific to the nurse anesthesiologist scope of practice.

Learning Objectives:

  • Evaluate the current state of the science supporting the use of Point-of-Care Ultrasound (PoCUS) in anesthesia as a sensitive and specific prognostic tool.
  • Create a consensus as to the essential PoCUS studies used in daily clinical practice.
  • Recognize the need to develop a standardized training curriculum and validated competency-based evaluation tools for essential PoCUS studies.
