Abstract:
Emergency Ultrasound Training for and with Medical Students Abstract. Practical basic skills in sonography are a mandatory part of Swiss medical schools since 2018. The universities of Basel and Bern teach students the content of the POCUS component "Basic Emergency Sonography" of the SGUM and have developed the e-learning tool "POCUS Emergency Sonography" for this purpose in cooperation. By using this innovative blend- ed learning concept, students acquire basic skills in sonography and can build upon this know-how in their further education.
