General Intensive Care Ultrasound (GenIUS)
Summary
The use of ultrasound in intensive care has become an essential component of our practice.
Although international guidelines on competencies exist, few countries have managed to translate this guidance into an accessible, well-structured educational programme for clinicians.
The ESICM General Intensive Care Ultrasound (GENIUS) course is a comprehensive, learner-centric course which aims to support physicians in achieving the competencies described in the recently published ESICM guidelines on ultrasound competencies.
The two-day training programme will offer theoretical insights, hands-on learning and case discussions with experts in critical care ultrasound. There will be ample opportunities to discuss and interact with colleagues who share a passion for critical care ultrasound, building learning as well as research networks.
Please note: The course will be held face-to-face in Barcelona, on October 05-09, 2024.
