Practicing clinicians Need –easy-to-use, affordable, innovative tools Solution –Accelerate learning process – visualization during instruction by physician –Provide intuitive, current portable ultrasound technology –Differentiate medical practice and further patient connection TBDXXXXX

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 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
