Zusammenfassung

Die Point-of-Care-Sonografie ist in der Akut- und Notfallmedizin ein fester Bestandteil der Diagnostik und Therapieeinleitung von kritisch kranken und verletzten Patienten. Während die Notfallsonografie im Rahmen der Zusatzweiterbildung für klinische Akut- und Notfallmedizin vorausgesetzt wird, wird diese für die prähospitale Notfallmedizin lediglich im (Muster-)Kursbuch Allgemeine und spezielle Notfallbehandlung als Weiterbildungsinhalt definiert. Obwohl einige Fachgesellschaften in Deutschland bereits eigene Lernkonzepte für die Notfallsonografie etabliert haben, fehlt bis dato ein einheitliches nationales Ausbildungskonzept für den Einsatz der Notfallsonografie im prähospitalem Umfeld. Experten mehrerer Fachgesellschaften haben daher als Empfehlung für die notfallmedizinische Weiterbildung ein Kurskonzept für die spezielle Ausbildung in der prähospitalen Notfallsonografie erarbeitet, welche gleichermaßen zu deren Qualitätssicherung beitragen soll.

Abstract

Point-of-care sonography is a precondition in acute and emergency medicine for the diagnosis and initiation of therapy for critically ill and injured patients. While emergency sonography is a mandatory part of the training for clinical acute and emergency medicine, it is not everywhere required for prehospital emergency medicine. Although some medical societies in Germany have already established their own learning concepts for emergency ultrasound, a uniform national training concept for the use of emergency sonography in the out-of-hospital setting is still lacking. Experts of several professional medical societies have therefore joined forces and developed a structured training concept for emergency sonography in the prehospital setting. The consensus paper serves as quality assurance in prehospital emergency sonography.
