Department of Emergency Medicine Echo Guided Life Support Ultrasound
Ever wonder how to integrate point of care ultrasound into real time management of a peri-arrest patient in your department? Wondering if it’s heart failure or COPD leading to the shortness of breath and ill appearance of the patient in front of you?
The Echo Guided Life Support (EGLS) course created in Canada, is a point-of-care ultrasound course that offers a succinct approach in a standardized manner for the patient in shock or peri-arrest.
Using a combination of pre-reading and videos, short lecture format, and lots of hands on learning, the EGLS course offered by the Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Manitoba will provide the learner with a solid foundation to help your patients. Integrating image generation, image interpretation, and clinical correlation, all while scanning healthy models AND patients with pathology, the learner will leave better prepared to care for patients. Ideal for learners from all areas (ICU, Anesthesia, ER, Internal Medicine, Critical Care Transport) who deal with critically ill patients.
