Venous access complications are common. Landmark-based techniques increase risk. Ultrasound changes everything— when providers know how to use it.
Ultrasound guidance ensures clinicians can see the vessel, guide the needle, and place lines with efficiency, accuracy and confidence. This one day hands-on ultrasound training is designed to help clinicians accurately and safely place Midlines and PICC lines.
Through the combination of online didactic modules, hands-on practice with cadavers utilizing Maverick’s patented pulsatile system, and live models, participants will refine their skills under the guidance of experienced instructors providing a well-rounded and immersive learning experience.
