Pearls at the Bedside: An Approach to Augmenting the Physical Exam with Pocket-sized Ultrasound

May 7, 2018 // Randy Glick

Join us Thursday, July 19th from 7:00 am – 11:15 am in beautiful Kiawah Island, South Carolina for an amazing Hands-on Ultrasound opportunity.  "Pearls at the Bedside: An Approach to Augmenting the Physical Exam with Pocket-sized Ultrasound", will be presented by Michael Wagner, MD, FACP, RDMS (Assistant Professor of Medicine at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine in Columbia, SC and Director of Internal Medicine Ultrasound Education for USC, Columbia residency program.)

In this workshop, attendees will review the multi-organ ultrasound physical examination that is routinely used and taught, applicable to both the inpatient and outpatient setting. Attendees will review REAL CASES highlighting its clinical utility when performed routinely as well as the literature showing changes in clinical care of the patients, particularly the elderly. This workshop will describe how the examination can be scaled for the beginner with limited skills and for the clinician with more extensive POCUS experience, as well as recommendations for when and how to layer different applications.

Included in your registration for the Hands-on course, you will receive an additional two-hour didactic lecture on "Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) for the Generalist: How It Is Used and Why It Matters" (part of SMA's Focus on Women's Health conference).

Registration is only $295 for the Hands-on course.  This course is available to only 20 participants so reserve your spot today!
