Description

Point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS) is being increasingly incorporated in pre-clerkship physical diagnosis courses. However, the development of such a curriculum at many medical schools is limited by financial constraints, the availability of trained faculty, and the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Here, we describe an optional POCUS curriculum that circumvents these barriers while still providing basic image acquisition skills and pathophysiological correlations.
