Course Description
Ultrasound Guided Peripheral Intravenous Vascular Access
This is a comprehensive course designed to ensure the learner acquires the knowledge they need to safely and effectively perform ultrasound guided peripheral intravenous access whenever it is indicated. It is for medical professionals only.
The lectures take just under 4 hours to watch, each covering a different aspect of the curriculum so it can be watched in bite-sized chunks. They can be watched at varying speeds (click on the “cog wheel” icon).
Trainees work through the lectures and complete quizzes to ensure they understand the key concepts. A certificate of completion can be downloaded.
Ideally candidates then attend a workshop to practice their new skill, honing the complex and multidimensional visuomotor and visuospatial skills required before moving on to patients.
A practical competence-based assessment ensures the trainee has reached an acceptable level of understanding and ability.
