Point of care ultrasound (POCUS)

Across pediatric subspecialties, there is growing need for training in Point of Care Ultrasound (POCUS) to provide excellent and safe patient care.

We have made available a collection of important teaching modules available on the internet for POCUS. We will also be providing more learning opportunities very soon created by the NeoCardioLab.  I find this resource to be wonderful: POCUS - ER - SickKids with great Youtube videos. 

There are also some interesting resources on these websites: 

NeoPocusCollab, POCUSNEO, NICUPOCUS, Echopedia, TnECHO.com, WinnipegHemodynamics, ECGWave, POCUS - ER - SickKids, MPROvE (MultiPROfessional Neonatal Education) YouTube Channel, List of resources from ScanFoam
