The faculty will cover the basics of ultrasound line placement
and then spend a great deal of time in lab practicing lines
in phantoms. Models are also used to practice, review and
identify the anatomy and landmarks. At the conclusion of
this workshop you will be able to apply ultrasound vascular
access knowledge with confidence in the performance of
vascular access procedures. |
