Instructor - Wendy Blount, DVM

Dr. Blount now offers "Hands-On UltraSound Training" in your clinic, on your machine(s), for you and your staff. NOTE: Please have the manual for your UltraSound machine available for this training.

Training classes are 8 hours per day, starting as early as 8am and ending as late at 5pm, based on the length of lunch break you choose.

One (1) Learning Station (ultrasound machine and animal table) is required for 1, 2 or 3 people. Two (2) Learning Stations are required for 4 to 6 people. Six (6) is the maximum number of people that may attend each class. Per Learning Station: One (1) person may make up a class with two (2) additional animal holders. Two (2) people may make up a class if there is one (1) additional animal holder. Three (3) people may make up a class and no additional animal holders will be needed. NOTE: If you have more than three (3) people and only one ultrasound machine available, we can have a sales rep contact you who can provide another machine.

Four (4) animals per learning station must be furnished by the clinic. They will be sedated for learning, using your chosen sedation protcol. We suggest at least one cat and the remaining dogs of various sizes. Animals are used one at a time and not re-dosed.

You may choose your training to concentrate in one of the following three (3) areas:

 
 
  • Basic Echocardiogram - we will learn and practice the standard right parasternal views (5 short axis and two long axis), the subcostal view and the left parasternal long axis view. You will be provided with a custom goal oriented cardiovascular evaluation template form for your clinic, which guides the exam and provides normal ranges.

  • Complete Abdomen - we will learn and practice scanning and measuring the liver, gallbladder, kidneys, spleen, urinary bladder, stomach, duodenum, small bowel, pancreas, adrenal glands, lymph nodes and great vessels. If you provide sexaully intact animals, we will scan the reproductive tracts as well. You will be provided with a custom goal oriented abdominal ultrasound template/form for your clinic, which guides the exam and provides normal ranges. At the end of the day, all participants will be comfortable finding and measuring the adrenal glands.

  • Emergency UltraSound - we'll learn and practice the three components of the Emergency UltraSound examination: abdomen, heart, and lung. You will be provided with a custom goal oriented Emergency UltraSound template/form for your clinic, which guides the exam and provides normal ranges. The Emergency UltraSound exams allow you to quickly assess emergency patients, but there are many practical uses for this exam to assess and track:
    • chronic illness, congestive heart failure, anaphylaxis, CPR and fluid therapy, cardiovascular volume status, etc.
    • heart/lung lesions - interstitial fluid, alveolar fluid, pleural fluid, pericardial fluid, consolidated lung, nodules, etc.
    • pneumothorax, pericardial effusion, hemoabdomen and other abdominal effusions, using abdominal fluid score to assess need for intervention, etc.

    Dr. Blount's "Hands-On UltraSound Trainings" give you the opportunity to enhance your UltraSound skills plus receive 8 Hours of Continuing Education Credit.

    Fees are plus travel expenses: 1, 2 or 3 people: $1,500.00 4, 5 or 6 people: $2,500.00
