The Medical Student Physical Diagnosis: CURA POCUS course integrates traditional physical examination skills with Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) to enhance clinical assessment and diagnostic accuracy. Designed for medical students, this course emphasizes a CURA (Compassion, Understanding, Respect, and Accuracy) approach to patient care, reinforcing both technical proficiency and bedside manner.
Students will gain hands-on experience using ultrasound technology to supplement physical examination techniques, allowing for real-time visualization of internal structures and improved clinical decision-making.
