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.
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.
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.
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.
Our Maverick Medical Education classes cover a number of different topics to provide pain relief or medical techniques suited to help you treat your patients in a more effective manner. As part of the training in some of our courses, different nerve blocks are taught, including the interscalene nerve block.
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.
Maverick Medical Education is not simply a business opportunity for our founders and instructors. Instead, we are a committed group of educators who want to continue learning and teaching others about how to more effectively reduce and manage pain throughout the country. This concept shines through when you speak to any of our Mavericks, like James Stockman, CRNA.
There can be little doubt that COVID-19 is the major topic of conversation in lives today, not just for the medical field, but for government, businesses, organizations, and communities everywhere. As each of us adapt to the guidelines and requirements put forth, while also working to protect ourselves and our family, adapting, and doing so quickly, has been vital to success. One incredible way medical teams are adjusting to meet the needs of their patients is by furthering the use of point of care ultrasound (POCUS) in a number of ways.
Point of care ultrasound, or POCUS, is emerging as a more and more beneficial tool with the number of applications that can be used to diagnose and treat patients effectively, something Maverick Medical Education is passionate about. Of particular interest is the ways POCUS performs in regards to pediatric medicine, particularly in emergency settings. Overall, ultrasound waves are safer for children by reducing their exposure to radiation from other imaging options. Additionally, the resolution can be tweaked and adjusted for the developmental age of the child at the bedside. Further, there are specific cases where POCUS can assist medical professionals in the patients they meet.
Continued education is vital to medical practice, for those in almost every aspect of what we do. Maverick Education was founded by a passion to help others learn the skills our leadership team acquired when searching for ways to better serve their patients. By constantly learning new techniques, practices, and methods, we can provide better care for those who walk through our doors everyday.
