UALH 277 - Scan Lab II

2 Credit(s)

This lab involves applying information learned in Scan Lab I and working on performing a complete abdominal exam. Once students satisfactorily demonstrate that they can perform a complete abdomen, they are promoted from back scan (BS) to begin scan or scan (S) status in clinical for abdominal organs. At this point, the students are still under direct supervision for all procedures. Pelvic scanning is then taught, transvaginal being an option, if there are class volunteers. Thyroid, carotids, venous duplex for legs, and musculoskeletal are presented. If the class feels that the objectives are completed early, the students will be directed to report to clinical for the remainder of the scheduled hours.
Prerequisite(s): UALH 273.
