Summary

This study looks at whether a short, hands-on training program can help emergency department staff (like nurse practitioners and physician assistants) learn to use heart ultrasound at the bedside. About 75 providers will take part in simulation training and then use ultrasound on real patients under supervision. The goal is to see if the training is practical and helpful, which could lead to faster and better heart care in emergencies.
