POCUS applications
More and more ultrasound handheld devices are being used, especially in non-clinical settings. Due to their size and ease of use, they can be taken anywhere, and patients can get diagnosed directly on site.
This course aims to provide you with the knowledge and skills on how to do an ultrasound examination in OB/GYN. In the gynecological part, we will refresh your knowledge on the anatomical and physiological aspects of the female reproductive system. You will learn to do a gynecological ultrasound examination with a Pocus device correctly.
The chapter on obstetrics covers demonstrations on how to do a fetal assessment, including a wellbeing scan, placenta position, evaluation of amniotic fluid, biophysical profile, and much more.
You get in-depth knowledge of many different gynecological and obstetric pathologies through case-based learning. Lectures and footage straight from the emergency departments of two hospitals ensure you remain as close to practical applications as possible while learning how to proceed with women with abnormal uterine bleeding or abdominal pain, the most common problem in an OBGYN emergency department.
