DescriptionAlthough only adopted recently, the use of ultrasound in anesthesia practice has been defined through its reduction in complications, increased effectiveness of regional anesthesia, and enhanced quality of central venous catheter placement. As noted by the Council on Accreditation (COA), Student Registered Nurse Anesthetists (SRNA’s) should have ultrasound education incorporated into their curriculum for it use both in regional anesthesia as well as central venous catheter placement. The purpose of this study was to determine whether incorporating an ultrasound educational workshop for novice SRNA's at the Rutgers Nurse Anesthesia Program (RNAP) would increase their clinical confidence for the use of ultrasound in peripheral nerve blocks. Using a pretest posttest interventional study, 26 SRNA underwent a workshop consisting of both a didactic lecture and supraclavicular peripheral nerve block simulation. Confidence levels of SRNA's were shown to increase by (x) amount between the pretest and posttest in which significance level of <0.001 was found. The findings concluded that the use of ultrasound education in regards to regional anesthesia is beneficial for novice SRNA's.
