This book provides guidance necessary for clinicians to arrive at better therapeutic decisions and perform safer procedures with the use of ultrasound. It provides high quality, asynchronous education and fosters adult learning and multidisciplinary collaboration. These critical care advanced echo cards were developed as a quick reference to support teaching and practice.

This handy guide clarifies basic concepts and provides the hands-on guidance necessary for clinicians to arrive at better therapeutic decisions and perform safer procedures with the use of ultrasound. Handbook of Critical Care and Emergency Ultrasound is the perfect resource for critical care and emergency providers who wish to deepen their knowledge of sonography.
