Gastric point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is a reliable, validated, and valuable tool in cases of unconfirmed fasting history, delayed gastric emptying due to GLP-1 agonist use, diabetic gastroparesis, and other conditions. This valuable skillset allows you to objectively visualize gastric contents to facilitate appropriate risk stratification to guide patient care.
Created and vetted by experts in diagnostic POCUS, this self-paced program culminates in a Gastric POCUS Certificate. Improve your bedside diagnostic skills and provide evidence of your expertise to credentialing and privileging bodies.
