Implementation and evaluation of a curriculum in critical care ultrasound for intensive care doctors

Education | Ultrasound | Critical Care

CCUS refers to a goal-directed ultrasound examination performed directly by the treating health care provider to address questions relevant to the immediate care of a critically ill patient. Over the last 5 years, residency training programs in critical care medicine across Canada, have begun to incorporate CCUS education into their educational platform, but with disparate levels of faculty expertise.

Over the last 5 years, the Department of Critical Care Medicine has worked hard to establish a CCUS training program for residents. To enhance this program, the same needs to be done for faculty across the Edmonton Zone. In this study, we will implement and evaluate the outputs of a CCUS curriculum designed for critical care faculty.
