Basic POCUS Course Tree - Days Module

Bedside Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) is a growing area of medicine. Especially for Emergency Physicians (EPs)and POCUS is an indispensible part of patient care.

Emergency Physicians Association of Turkey (EPAT) has organised lots of POCUS courses both inside Turkey and outside Turkey. We have given POCUS courses in India, Jordan and Egypt with our partners Society for Emergency Medicine India (SEMI), Jordan Emergency Medicine Society (JEMS) and Egyptian Society for Emergency Medicine (EGSEM).

We have planned an International Bedside Point-of-Care Ultrasound Course in Cairo- EGYPT on March 10 - 11 - 12 , 2022

Besides the sharing of knowledge and latest research, there will be plenty of opportunities to practice and reflect on your skills through practice exercises and one-to-one feedback. No prior knowledge of bedside US is required. All the lectures will be delivered by people who have experience of doing exactly this. The education program is comprehensive and integrated.
