The learning objectives of the basic ultrasound guided regional anaesthesia program are:
– Understanding the basic anatomy and sonoanatomy of the basic nerve blocks
– Understanding how to perform each of the basic nerve blocks
– Knowledge about the pitfalls
Basic UGRA (Ultrasound Guided Regional Anaesthesia) consists of easily learned and safe peripheral nerve blocks allowing effective perioperative analgesia for the majority of surgical procedures involving the upper and lower limbs and the anterolateral abdominal wall
The basic nerve blocks are exclusively performed as single shot injections using the in-plane needle approach to the target nerve

Therefore, any feedback provided by you is very important.
After each lesson there will be an opportunity for you to give your feedback regarding the content of the slide.
Feel free to give us any feedback you may have – comments, suggestions, praise, criticism, error reports etc.
By completing this course you will learn:
The focused questions you ask must be of absolute importance to the patient in an emergency setting in terms of:
Concept
In this Basic POCUS course, the concept is focused ultrasonography.
Compared to protocolized ultrasonography, it represents a paradigm shift as it applies specific parts of the systematic ultrasonography examinations to solve specific clinical issues.
Only the necessary examinations are performed – and they depend on you and the clinical question you ask regarding your patient.
No protocol
You do not have to stick to a specific protocol
The focused questions selected for this course are:
Heart
Is pericardial fluid collection present?
Basic POCUS is ultrasonography in every emergency care provider’s pocket
This course teaches you how to use an ultrasound transducer like you use your stethoscope.
The content has been carefully selected to answer the questions on life-threatening and time-critical conditions, focused ultrasonography can answer.
Nothing is left out because of complexity – but everything has been boiled down to the bare essentials of focused ultrasonography in an emergency care setting.
There are no algorithms and no protocol names – the focus is solely on decision-making in individual patients using ultrasonography.
