Now in its 18th year, the course builds on the foundations of small groups of candidates led by experienced, EDRA diplomates and nationally recognised experts in the field of local and regional anaesthesia.
The day commences with two engaging lectures. The first introduces the fundamental principles of ultrasound and its application in generating optimal clinical images. The second provides a structured roadmap for mastering regional anaesthesia.
The rest of the day works through a series of workshops allowing you to gain hands-on experience in obtaining the images required to perform the following blocks:
Upper limb:
Interscalene
Supra/infraclavicular
Suprascapular
Axillary
Median / ulnar / radial at all levels
Trunk:
TAP
QL ant/lat and post and Serratus anterior
Interpectoral and Pecto-Serratus
ESP
Lower limb:
Femoral
Fascia-iliaca
Adductor canal
Sciatic
Ankle block
I-PACK
PENG
There will be opportunities to image anatomy for central neuraxial blocks.
The workshops will also allow you to explore how these new skills can be used clinically to deliver patient care.
With a limit to candidate numbers, there is ample opportunity to ‘customise’ the content of the workshop to maximise the impact of each for you.
