Start with the basics, learn the nerve blocks region by region, add point-of-care ultrasound, then follow a learning pathway, test yourself with patient cases and the scan explorer, and keep a log of what you have learned.
-
01 · START HEREBasics of ultrasound
Principles, needling, the routine for every block, identifying structures and local anaesthetics.
-
02 · BY REGIONNerve blocks
Upper limb, lower limb, chest wall, abdomen, pelvis and perineum, and neuraxial.
-
03 · POINT-OF-CAREPOCUS
Airway, gastric, diaphragm, lung, DVT and focused cardiac ultrasound.
-
04 · STEP BY STEPLearning pathways
Plan A blocks, their Plan B, C and D alternatives, and ESRA Diploma revision, with a certificate for each.
-
05 · PATIENT CASESWhich block?
Short patient stories: choose the block you would offer, then see the reasoning, including anticoagulant timings.
-
06 · INTERACTIVEScan explorer
Slide the probe along the brachial plexus, median, sciatic and femoral nerves and watch the scan change.
