Point-of-care ultrasound (PoCUS) is an attractive modality to diagnose intussusception at the bedside rapidly and accurately. Plain radiographs often fail to detect intussusception, while PoCUS offers high diagnostic accuracy without exposing patients to ionizing radiation. The KidSONO Intussusception module allows learners to master each step on the path to PoCUS competence. Upon completion of this module, clinicians will be able to safely perform and interpret PoCUS images at the bedside.

Credits coming soon...

After completing this module, participants will be able to:

• Describe the indication and limitations of PoCUS for detecting intussusception in pediatric patients
• Demonstrate the ability to perform a PoCUS examination of a patient looking for intussusception
• Distinguish intussusception from normal
• Apply the skill to common clinical scenarios
