Educational Resources
Our comprehensive educational resource for budding regionalists...
A one day beyond introductory course aimed at those who want to consolidate and improve skills in Ultrasound Guided Regional Anaesthesia (UGRA)
Our course includes
- scanning and sonoanatomy on live models.
- extensive phantom practice.
- multidisciplinary faculty drawn from both local and UK experts in their field.
- fantastic lunch and refreshments available all day.
Suitable for both trainees + consultants
Course prerequisites are previous attendance on an introductory UGRA course.
Whether you want to consolidate your learning from a recent introductory course, or want to broaden your basic skill set, we offer a low student to instructor ratio, to deliver your educational needs.
Come and learn UGRA at the UK's premier hospital.
We consistently receive excellent feedback and are very relaxed with a very friendly faculty.
This course should count towards the additional "Hands-on" course required for sitting for the EDRA (European Diploma of Regional Anaesthesia). This is currently being finalised by ESRA and we should know before the course starts.
