Objectives
Upon completion of this activity the learner should be able to:
Explain the basic imaging principles of ultrasound used during guidance of vascular access.
Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the "In-Plane" and "Out-of-Plane" and the "Direct" vs. "Indirect" ultrasound-guided vascular access techniques..
Differentiate venous vs. arterial anatomy by ultrasound.
Relate ultrasound imaging characteristics of vessels and contiguous anatomy that indicate suitable approach for vascular access.
Identify ultrasound imaging characteristics of thrombus or thrombophlebitic changes or other conditions that would indicate a vessel is not suitable for vascular access.
Demonstrate the use of ultrasound guidance for Peripheral Line vascular access.
Increase the participant's knowledge to better perform ultrasound-guided vascular access procedures.
The blended ultrasound-guided vascular access workshop is designed for physicians, PA’s, CRNA’S, nurses and other medical professionals involved with performing vascular access procedures. Specialty practice may include emergency, trauma, critical care, internal medicine, and intensivists.
