PEM POCUS Curriculum Toolbox

A resource of PEM POCUS Curricula aimed at training in practice physicians in PEM POCUS

There are many recommendations of how to train fellows and residents in POCUS but limited resources for in practice physicians (practice-based pathway). Here we share real life examples of PEM POCUS curricula from a variety of different institutions so we can learn from one another.

Key Definitions

• Training-based pathway: POCUS education during PEM fellowship training

• Practice-based pathway: POCUS education while a practicing clinician after completing fellowship training

  • those who trained before widespread POCUS education

  • those who wish to increase their comfort/abilities even if they had some training in fellowship

  • EM trained physicians who wish to better apply POCUS to pediatric patients
