Ultrasound and Resuscitation Fellowship
Resuscitation is one of the many aspects of Emergency Medicine that makes us stand out amongst physicians in other specialities. We take pride in understanding how to properly run medical and traumatic resuscitations with grace and composure. Rapid clinical decisions are made based on experience, knowledge, and contextual clues specific to the patient’s presentation. The development of point-of-care ultrasound within the Emergency Department has revolutionized the science and art of resuscitation, and it is our belief that ultrasound expertise and EM resuscitation go hand in hand.
In order to develop the next generation of leaders in EM resuscitation, the Department of Emergency Medicine at Lincoln Hospital established the 1-year fellowship in Ultrasound and Resuscitation. Critical care in the Lincoln ED is unique given the diverse presentations in both trauma and medical resuscitation. There are 6 dedicated resuscitation bays and 20 beds in the ED critical care unit. We have 24 hours of dedicated attending physician coverage and multiple, state-of-the-art ultrasounds at their disposal. The US and Resuscitation Fellow will be provided with the tools to advance and hone the critical care knowledge and techniques they obtained during residency. Additionally, they will gain skills in administration, education, and research necessary to become the next generation of US directors and US faculty as future leaders in EM critical care.
