The EDE 2 Course, Point-of-Care Ultrasound for the Advanced User
EDE 2 is an advanced emergency ultrasound course. Although it brings you new indications, EDE 2 retains the principles of the original EDE course including content that sticks to the essentials, an emphasis on learning image generation, and the straightforward and safe incorporation of POCUS into clinical practice. EDE 2 is a 2-day course. Day 1 consists of completing online modules. The online modules are in cutting edge and interactive format. Participants can go through the online material at their own pace, at a time of their own choosing, and as often as they like. Under the new format, the live part of the course has dropped down to 1 day and consists mostly of scanning, with brief mini-lectures to remind participants how to do the scan. You should only take EDE 2 if you have taken a basic course and use ultrasound on a regular basis. CPOCUS Independent Practitioner status is preferred but not required. Sign up for the course on either May 2 OR May 3. The EDE eBook and Smart Phone App access are included. EMU attendees will receive a $100 rebate cheque at the course.

Your approach to ED orthopedics will be better. Better assessments, better ordering and interpreting imaging, better reductions and immobilization, and better disposition skills.
2-days of case reviews delivered on-line. Some time is given to incorporate these skills into practice. Then, on May 2, the hands-on day, to see demos, physical exam reviews and practice.
