2/ Current #goals #Cardiac #POCUS #MedEd
(1) introduce concepts of ultrasound- common imaging views, correlate with anatomy, & physical examination skills
(2) develop scanning techniquesβ‘οΈ basic competence
(3) recognize & differentiate b/w normal anatomy & basic pathology

3/ When Do We Start? Prerequisite knowledge for #POCUS teaching
"priming effect" of preclinical education
Big machine 1st over handheld Martinez et al bit.ly/2wzCcJB @UMMC
Start 1st year @Hoppmann et al bit.ly/2Q4ECsO @UofSCSOM

4/ How much training is required? Curriculum duration
no clear consensus
published accounts 2-25 hrs
financial/resource commitments
rigid scheduling
HHU simple interface BUT
poorer image resolution, processing power
Greater difficulty for novices not as easy as it looks

7/Hands-On Practice & Simulation for Developing Image Acquisition Skills
hands-on practice- live patients, students practice on one another before actual patients
Simulation
standardized student assessment
pathology variety
emerging techniques Augmented reality,Gamification

8/Competency evaluation
#POCUS = teaching tool &clinical skill
quality & performance of imaging studies operator dependent
reliable assessments of competence
task-specific checklists & global rating scale to assess good clinical practice

9/ What Are the Limitations Faced by Medical Schools for Teaching #POCUS?
Diagnostic- lack of published accounts regarding the diagnostic accuracy of #POCUS use by medical students
Personnel Resources Limitation
Little published evidence on #legal aspects of #cardiac #POCUS

10/ Want to ask ? #Joinus #ASEchoJC 9/4 8-9 pm
Are all cardiac POCUS scans part of the PE, or are some considered diagnostic testing?
