E-LEARNING COURSE
for Perioperative Clinicians: See what you've always had to assume.
This website is the reference for gastric ultrasound. The e-learning course turns it into a learning pathway: one structured route from your first scan to the clinical decision, built on the I-AIM framework and the content of this site.
What the course adds:
- A step-by-step path through indication, acquisition, interpretation and medical decision-making
- Real clinical cases — patients who did not fit the fasting rules, and what the scan changed
- From finding to action: what to do when the stomach is full, including GLP-1 agonists, rapid sequence induction, gastric drainage and advanced airway techniques
- Short knowledge checks along the way, so you can see what has stuck
The course takes about 1–2 hours. You can stop at any time and continue where you left off.
Helping us learn how gastric ultrasound is learned
The course also helps answer an open question: who learns gastric ultrasound, and how much does an online course actually help? A few short questions about your background, and an optional knowledge test before and after the course, let us study this. All answers are analysed anonymised and in aggregate — no individual is ever identified, and your data is never sold or shared for marketing.
Why you need an account
The course is completely free. A free account lets you follow the pathway in order, save your progress, take the knowledge checks and return where you left off.
This E-Learning course is the brainchild of Dr. Lars Knudsen.
