Ultrasound-Guided Treatment: Accuracy and Reliability
Ultrasound can be used for far more than looking inside the patient to see what is taking place at a specific time. Using point of care ultrasound, or POCUS, allows for an adaptive view of how a patient is progressing or for guiding treatments the patient needs. With this additional view, treatments and procedures are becoming safer, more accurate, and very reliable.
The Ins and Outs of Anesthesia
Anesthesia can refer to a number of different medicines to assist in medical procedures of all types. While commonly thought of as a single type that puts you into a full sleep, anesthesia is actually anything that makes you comfortable to assist in the safety of performing these procedures. At Maverick Medical Education, we know about anesthesia of all types and can help you become proficient at a number of them.
Treating Chronic Migraine with Nerve Blocks
Chronic migraines are one of the more common pain issues we see from the public. In fact, headaches in general effect over 48% of the population according to Current Pain and Headache. With so many patients complaining of headache pain, better treatments should be readily available. Maverick Medical Education teaches nerve blocks to provide relief for many of these patients.
Using Ultrasound to Treat Pain
As ultrasound is being used in more fields of medicine, the ways it can be used is changing at a rapid pace. Far more than a mere diagnostic tool, ultrasound is developing into a mode of treatment itself, from assisting doctors in making decisions as a condition progresses to changing the way pain treatment is thought of. Maverick Medical Education marvels at the ways ultrasound technology has been applied in more ways over the past few years and looks forward to how it will continue to change the practice of all aspects of medicine in the years to come.

The Maverick Difference – Student Interview
Behind the Maverick name is a group of men and women who truly believe the methods and courses we teach will revolutionize how our students treat those in their community. When we start a new course, we hope the students will find value in our instruction and are able to apply new techniques in their practices. Jamie Harris, CRNA, is one of our repeat students who can vouch for the application of these methods and how her patients are better for the courses she has taken. As she completes her fellowship through TCU, she is ready to push even further in the pain management and medical practice fields for the success Maverick sees.
