Innovative Ultrasound-Guided Erector Spinae Plane Nerve Block Model for Training Emergency Medicine Physicians

Jose Correa Ibarra, MS*, Amelia Crowley, PA-C*, Sydney Hughes Lindros, MS^, Kevin B Walker, MD, FASA*, Caroline Astemborski, MD* and Phillip Moschella, MD, PhD*

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8PW7DIssue 10:2 No ratings yet.
This innovation model is designed to facilitate hands-on training of the ultrasound-guided ESP nerve block using a practical, realistic, and cost-effective ballistics gel model. By the end of this training session, learners should be able to: 1) identify relevant sonoanatomy on the created simulation model; 2) demonstrate proper in-plane technique; and 3) successfully replicate the procedure on a different target on the created training model.

Modification of an Airway Training Mannequin to Teach Engagement of the Hyoepiglottic Ligament

Richard Tumminello, DO* and Daniel Patino-Calle, MD*

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J8R06P Issue 9:2 No ratings yet.
By the end of this education session, participants should be able to: 1) identify relevant airway anatomy during intubation, including base of the tongue, epiglottis, midline vallecular fold, anterior arytenoids; 2) appreciate the value of a stepwise anatomically guided approach to intubation; 3) become familiar with the midline vallecular fold and underlying anatomy, including the hyoepiglottic ligament, and how proper placement of the laryngoscope can result in improved glottic visualization.

Construction of Soft Prep Cadaver Pericardiocentesis Training Model and Implementation Among Emergency Medicine Residents

Kathryn Oskar, MD* and Dana Stearns, MD^

DOI: https://doi.org/10.21980/J87930 Issue 8:2 No ratings yet.
By the end of this session, residents will gain increased procedural competence and confidence with pericardiocentesis. Residents will be able to identify necessary supplies for the procedure, identify relevant surface anatomy and ultrasound views, and successfully aspirate fluid from model effusion.
