The College of Paramedics ultrasound group has teamed up with the National Point of Care Ultrasound (NPoCUS) subgroup of the British Medical Ultrasound society (BMUS) to introduce a new exciting area of practice - pre-hospital ultrasound skills for paramedics.

Echo in Life Support (ELS) – the future of cardiac resuscitation

This interactive, hands-on workshop is aimed at all personnel who deal with cardiac arrest, especially members of the College of Paramedics with who are interested in learning how ultrasound can help in cardiac arrest management. No prior knowledge of ultrasound is required!
