Webinar: POCUS and Undifferentiated Shock
Date: Wednesday, June 25, 2025 – 12:00 PDT

When treating critically ill patients, shock is frequently identified, yet the underlying etiology is elusive. Recognizing and interpreting POCUS findings is crucial for rapid diagnosis and proper treatment of these time-sensitive cases. Join Cameron Baston MD to learn how to use POCUS to differentiate the etiology of shock.

Webinar: POCUS and Undifferentiated Shock

Webinar: POCUS and Undifferentiated Shock
Description
When treating critically ill patients, shock is frequently identified, yet the underlying etiology is elusive. Recognizing and interpreting POCUS findings is crucial for rapid diagnosis and proper treatment of these time-sensitive cases. Join Cameron Baston MD to learn how to use POCUS to differentiate the etiology of shock. 
What You'll Learn:
 
  • Identify the components of shock with POCUS: cardiac, venous filling, pulmonary, and others. 
  • Recognize and interpret the pattern of POCUS findings in case study examples to narrow the shock differential.
  • Apply the appropriate treatment in clinical shock scenarios.
  • Appreciate growing applications and advanced POCUS techniques in shock cases.

Webinar: An Introduction to VExUS
Date: Monday, February 28, 2022 – 12:00 PST

Accurate assessment of volume status is a perpetual challenge in medicine. The detection of right-sided venous congestion can be particularly difficult with traditional clinical and POCUS techniques; but often has significant pathologic consequences. Join Dr. Katie Wiskar to learn how to perform a VExUS exam – Venous Excess UltraSound – and see examples of how to incorporate this technique into your clinical practice.

*NEW* Resuscitative TEE - Transesophageal Ultrasound (TEU)

Point of care Transesophageal Ultrasound (TEU) is an emerging modality that offers bedside clinicians the ability to assess critically ill patients quickly. A Transesophageal Echocardiogram, or TEE, is an alternative way to perform an echocardiogram. A specialized transducer containing an ultrasound transducer at its tip is passed into the patient's esophagus. This allows image and Doppler evaluation which can be recorded.
