Image is everything
Monday, 15 June, 2015
In healthcare a good image can mean the difference between life and death. Now, with ultrasound gaining acceptance beyond the imaging department and credentialing becoming mandatory, getting that image right is more important than ever.
Yet despite the advantages that bedside ultrasound offers to patient management, are you questioning yourself when that probe is in your hand? Are you delaying treatment because you need the reassurance associated with traditional imaging modalities? Do you look back at the end of a shift and wonder if your equipment was correctly set, or whether you missed something?
Such issues are not unique to you – they are truly global. And just as the rate at which bedside ultrasound use is accelerating, accessing quality education to bridge the knowledge gap is becoming increasingly difficult. Demand for training positions is rapidly outpacing the limited capacity of traditional learning pathways. Consequently ultrasound education is often provided ad-hoc, with quality and consistency compromised by the competing pressure of operational realities.
