Proper training and use of ultrasound in EMS could revolutionize patient care, making our procedures safer and our diagnosis more accurate, all while decreasing the time to definitive treatment at the hospital. In this webinar, we will discuss the origins, merits, and future of ultrasound in EMS and how it could be realistically implemented to improve the care of your patients in the field. By the end of this webinar the participant will be able to explain why ultrasound is safe for patient care in EMS using both evidence and shared experience, describe multiple appropriate uses of ultrasound in the prehospital field, and reflect on how his/her patient care could be improved by the addition of ultrasound to their tool set.
