WORKSHOP STRUCTURE

ESRA’s first dedicated hands-on PoCUS course is an introductory programme built for anaesthesiologists who want to bring practical ultrasound into everyday perioperative care.

Over two intensive days – plus online pre-course modules developed by USabcd – you’ll build the skills to answer the clinical questions that matter at the bedside: gastric ultrasound, lung and diaphragm assessment, focused assessment with sonography in trauma (FAST), airway assessment and focused transthoracic echocardiography (TTE).

Why this course stands out:
• An internationally recognised faculty with extensive PoCUS experience
• A low participant-to-faculty ratio for genuine supervised practice
• Extensive theoretical preparation beforehand, so on-site time is spent scanning
