This Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) course is primarily intended for primary care junior doctors to help in making clinical management decisions in the care of patients. POCUS is not designed to replace the traditional, detailed ultrasound exam. POCUS relies on the integration of patient history, physical examination and the ultrasound performed and interpreted by the clinician at the point of care. The course begins with the introduction of basic knowledge and sonography principles. It also covers the major topics like FAST, E-FAST, solid organ injuries and practical points in acute abdominal pain.
