May 23 @ 9:00 am – 5:00 pm BST
This course is aimed at those working in emergency medicine and related areas who are interested in further developing their knowledge and skills in ultrasound-guided nerve blocks.
By the end of the course, you’ll be able to recognise the anatomy and understand the technique for the following nerve blocks:
• Lower limb blocks – Fascia Iliaca block
• Serratus anterior block
• Erector spinae block
• Haematoma block
• Suprainguinal fascia iliaca nerve block and pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block
• Upper limb blocks
On the course day, lectures will alternate with practical sessions. Much of the scanning will be done with normal volunteers. You will practice needle insertion using gel blocks, fascia iliaca models, and the Needle Trainer (Intelligent Ultrasound with AI-based assistance).
