August 9, 2024 – Rockville, MD – Inteleos’ Point-of-Care Ultrasound Certification Academy (PCA) today announced the expansion of its partnership with the Argentine Society of Critical Care Ultrasound (ASARUC) to offer a comprehensive Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) Education and Certification bundle for Nephrology professionals.
The ASARUC and PCA bundle combines the expertise of both organizations to provide a robust training program (POCUS) for nephrologists and critical care specialists. The bundle includes:
- ASARUC’s online and in-person training
- POCUS Certification Academy’s POCUS Fundamentals certificate
- POCUS Certification Academy’s Nephrology-specific certification
This partnership builds upon ASARUC’s existing role as one of our trusted POCUS Education Providers. By integrating ASARUC’s specialized nephrology ultrasound training with our globally recognized certification programs, we aim to elevate the standard of care in nephrology and critical care settings.
“With the use of POCUS being recognized as a vital and integral component in the management of nephrology and critical care patients, we hope this unique offering will provide a pathway for nephrologists, intensivists, emergentologists, anesthesiologists, internists and other specialists to build and validate the POCUS skills they need to appropriately manage their patients,” said Jasmine Rockett, director of the PCA.
“With POCUS, a nephrologist will master hemodynamics and become the unrivaled expert in fluids and electrolytes,” said Eduardo Ríos Argaiz of the ASARUC POCUS Academy.
