Point of care ultrasound (POCUS) is a bedside tool increasingly used in the NICU by healthcare professionals to assist with procedures and provide additional information to help guide clinical decision-making.

This pre-conference workshop will provide both nurses and advanced practice providers with an introductory hands-on educational opportunity on using procedural POCUS in the NICU. Participants will gain valuable experience with the use of ultrasound and its utility in the NICU.

This session builds on the skills and knowledge from POCUS basic applications and covers advanced procedural POCUS applications. This session is geared toward the APRN or RN that performs advanced procedures in their practice.

Procedures covered include static and dynamic spinal US for lumbar puncture, suprapubic bladder aspiration, and fluid drainage (paracentesis/thoracentesis).

*Live models will be used for ultrasound practice, technique, simulation of procedures, and no actual performance of procedures done on live models.

Learning Outcome(s):

At the conclusion of this presentation, the learner will be able to:
  1. The learner will understand a couple of key benefits of adding POCUS to a procedure
  2. The learner will be able to gain experience with using an ultrasound machine on live models and phantom models
