Description: Point of care ultrasound is integrated into many PA curricula with varied utilization in both didactic and clinical phases. In PA education, intentional application of Bloom’s taxonomy in curriculum development and education allows for learners to develop foundational skills and apply critically to patient care and medical decision-making.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define the utilization of point-of-care ultrasound in PA education and clinical practice
  • Align the progression of PA education with a proposed POCUS curriculum, utilizing Bloom's taxonomy
  • Discuss the application of POCUS vertically and longitudinally in both the preclinical and clinical phases of PA curriculum
