Focused ultrasound examinations in the critical care setting have become an extension of the clinical assessment because of their rapid, precise detection capabilities. The Society of Critical Care Medicine's (SCCM) hosted critical care ultrasound courses combine expert-developed lectures with interactive skill stations to bring the realistic training needed to perform and interpret point-of-care ultrasound to your institution.
The courses are available in a live, site-hosted format for institutions to provide training for healthcare professionals.
Course sites have the option to provide participants with an online version of the course for continued learning after attending the course. In the online version, videos of every session from SCCM’s most recent ultrasound course are provided in a searchable electronic format.
To receive the certificate of successful completion, course participants must attend all didactic lectures, successfully complete all skill stations, and achieve a score of at least 70% on the posttest.
