        QPEM - Pediatric POCUS (Pediatric Point-of-Care Ultrasound)


        Overview

        Sidra Medicine Pediatric Emergency Department team has successfully conducted several Pediatric POCUS courses over the past three years with excellent feedback. This 2-day interactive practical workshop will guide the clinician to gain the required knowledge and competence in pediatric point-of-care ultrasound.
        This is a QCHP-approved CME activity with Category 1 & 3 points.
        The use of point-of-care ultrasound in the Emergency Department is now the standard of care and is recognized as a significant element in the emergency medicine board training in Canada and the ACGME training programs in the US.  Clinicians at pediatric institutions are expected to be able to provide this point-of-care bedside standard.  

        Conference Objectives

        By the end of the course, applicants can:

        1. Describe how physics relates to ultrasound image acquisition and processing.
        2. Apply methods of ultrasound image acquisition.
        3. Identify the indications for the use of ultrasound in pediatric emergency cases.
        4. Recognize the relevant, focused findings and pitfalls associated with using ultrasound in decision-making.

        Implement the best evidence guidelines and practice standards to help reduce risk and to improve patient safety when using ultrasound.
