Get ready to dive into the GenIUS Pathway – your first step to mastering critical care ultrasound!

The General Intensive Care Ultrasound (GenIUS) certification, offered by ESICM, is your gateway to building essential ultrasound skills in intensive care. Based on the latest international recommendations (Robba et al. 2021) and aligned with CoBaTrICE, this learning pathway is designed to equip practitioners with the core competencies needed in critical care settings.

Join our Kick-Off Webinar and meet the expert core faculty as they introduce the GenIUS pathway and walk you through key concepts that will shape your learning journey:

• Vascular ultrasound – beside cannulation
• Why measuring aortic VTI matters in daily ICU practice
• Using lung ultrasound to assess dyspnea
• Is abdominal ultrasound useful in non-traumatic patients?
• Should every intensivist master brain ultrasound?
