Description

The course is split into lower limb on day 1 and upper limb on day 2. This gives the opportunity for lower limb specialists such as podiatrists, foot and ankle surgeons and hip surgeons to attend only the lower limb day and shoulder surgeons and other upper limb specialists to attend only the second day. However, we do advise that delegates attend both days to get more practice guiding the needle and developing their injection skills (even if they may not inject a particular region in their clinical practice).

Please note: If you are only able to attend one day, please email info@ultrasoundtraining.co.uk.

The practical workshops are carried out on soft-preserved full body cadavers, which is the closest match to the real thing! You have full access to perfect your skills on the cadavers over the 2 days. We have lots of machines and you will benefit from close supervision throughout from the faculty.

The course is taught by very experienced practitioners who will deliver the information you need and translate this information into the practical application of carrying out the guided injections. This course is packed with clinical gems, top tips when to inject when not to inject, what to look out for and to avoid with each procedure and how to make the procedures as straight forward for the clinician and as comfortable as possible for the client. We cover the basic procedures including all peri-articular and articular injections and more advanced procedures that are at the cutting edge of MSK and sports medicine. This includes barbotage, hydro-distention, high volume injections and tendon stripping techniques. Following this course, you will be ready to either start carrying out guided injections on your clients or ready to introduce the more advanced techniques into your repertoire.

Who should attend?
This programme attracts MSK Radiologists, GPs with a special interest in MSK/Sports Medicine, Surgeons, Sports Medicine Consultants, Physiotherapists, Radiographers, Podiatrists, Sonographers and Osteopaths.

Course pre-requisites

  1. Mr Manoj Sood - Consultant Hip Surgeon

    An excellent hands-on course with enthusiastic instructors and a good instructor to delegate ratio. Allows plenty of time to practice the injections and to concentrate on the ones that are most relevant to your practice. Recommended.

  2. Dr Chris Milne - Consultant Sports Medicine - Rangers Football Club

    Fantastic course as per others within SMUG. Thorough pre-course reading provided. Clear, concise teaching sessions, and excellent opportunity for intensive repeated practice under close supervision with experienced tutors. Recommend for anyone injecting in clinical practice.

    Excellent, practical aspects very good. The tutors were very welcoming and shared their considerable experience throughout the course. Good balance between demos and practical workshops - everyone at plenty of time to practice- excellent teaching material.

  15. YT - Consultant Radiologist

    I attended the cadaveric course to learn US guided injections of the hip - I currently do them fluoroscopy guided - by the end of the course I felt very confident in carrying them out and will start on Monday in clinic!

  16. Matt Prout - Extended Scope Physiotherapist

    We had unlimited access to the cadavers. The teaching faculty have extensive experience of teaching guided injections and shared their substantial amount of knowledge over the two days. The course was very relaxed and friendly.

  17. Paul Hattam - Highly Specialised Physiotherapist and Lead Tutor Society of Orthopaedic Medicine (SOMMS)

    Practical time was excellent, course tutors very approachable and knowledgeable. The course was very well organised within small groups and lots of close supervision from the tutors.

  18. Dr Frank Johnson - Consultant in Sports Medicine, Canada

    Superb lecturing and great ratio of cadavers to delegates. I would highly recommend this course. I came all the way from Canada for it!! - Worth every penny! Significantly more time on the cadavers compared to North American Courses and much cheaper! Win-win!

  19. Gareth Davies - Osteopath

    Really positive fun atmosphere on course. Chris has an amazing energy to his teaching - he is clearly passionate about what he does and that shows in his enthusiasm and support for the delegates. Congratulations on a truly brilliant course.

  20. Anonymous - Consultant Radiologist

    This was an excellent experience; the tutors have fantastic tips to help with needle visualisation. I feel ready to carry put my first gulded injection on Monday morning!

  21. Geoff Gardener - Osteopath

    This is a difficult course to organise and run. Lots of technical elements to cover - Chris, Lorenzo, Jon and John go out of their way to constantly help the delegates. This is a must do course for anyone wanting to learn ultrasound guided injections.

  22. SS - Clinical Specialist Physiotherapist

    The SMUG team have clearly spent a considerable amount of time devising this course to ensure they cover all the technical elements required and all peripheral joint and soft tissue injections. Having the opportunity to practice all these injections over the 2 days is a unique experience and essential to gain the skill required to carry out US guided injections. I would attend this course 2-3 times and I would still find it useful.

  23. Mr Kailish Devalia - Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Surgeon

    Many thanks to the team to for a brilliant course. Very practical and relevant to my practice.

  24. SF - Doctor

    Very practical and relevant to my practice

  25. BW - Radiologist

    Excellent, practical aspects very good.
