About our Ultrasound Guided Cannulation course

Why should I get trained in US Guided vascular access?
The ability to safely insert an intravenous cannula is a must-have skill for many specialties. Ultrasound-guided vascular access allows cannulation of veins that are not visible or palpable and reduces the number of punctures and potential complications compared to a blind technique.
We’ve been teaching how to do ultrasound-guided vascular access on our Core Emergency Ultrasound course for many years. In addition to that, we’ve developed a short half-day training dedicated to Ultrasound-Guided Cannulation for a wider range of clinicians.

Who can take this vascular access training?
This course is aimed at clinicians who want to further develop their cannulation skills. This includes:
- Phlebotomists
- Health-care assistants
- Nurses
- Paramedics
- Foundation Doctors (FY1/FY2)
The only pre-course requirement is that you should be working in a service where you are regularly involved in cannulation.

What does the USG cannulation course cover?
Topics covered include:
- Ultrasound as an imaging modality
- Identification of vascular structures
- Upper limb anatomy
- Ultrasound-guided cannulation
You will have the opportunity to practice on a variety of ultrasound machines and hand-held devices. Our facilitators will help you to scan a variety of neck, torso, and upper limb anatomy to gain familiarity with ultrasound.
You will be given your own vascular access model to continue practicing after the course.
