Free CPD Webinar: Discover the Power of POCUS with Ludivine Boiron
Veterinary medicine is evolving fast, and Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) is leading the charge. We’re excited to offer a free CPD webinar featuring Ludivine Boiron, DVM, MSc, DipECVECC, DipACVECC, as she dives into how POCUS is transforming emergency and critical care in veterinary practice.
What is POCUS?
POCUS, often referred to as bedside ultrasound, has seen rapid development over the past 15 years. Originally known for trauma assessment through the FAST protocol, POCUS is now being used to assess a wide range of conditions including heart disease, fluid overload, and lung abnormalities.
In this insightful session, Ludivine Boiron will walk you through the latest advancements, including:
-
Vet BLUE – a lung-specific protocol
-
Global FAST – an integrated approach that combines multiple assessments for enhanced diagnostic precision
These protocols allow for faster, non-invasive, affordable, and radiation-free evaluations that can be completed in under 10 minutes—ideal for emergency situations and critical care settings.
Why Nurses Should Tune In
Veterinary nurses play a crucial role in implementing and supporting POCUS in clinical practice. This webinar will highlight:
-
How POCUS fits into emergency and critical care workflows
-
The nurse’s role in performing and interpreting these scans
-
Real-world applications during CPR, trauma, and cardiac cases
POCUS is an adjunct tool—not a replacement—for thorough physical exams and other diagnostics, but it greatly enhances your ability to make informed clinical decisions at the bedside.
