Innovative Gaumard Ultrasound™ and Pediatric Emergency POCUS/eFAST Scenario Courseware Named 2021 EMS World Innovation Awards Winner

MIAMI, Dec. 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Gaumard Scientific Co., an industry leader of simulation technology for healthcare education and training, today announced that the company's  Ultrasound and Pediatric Emergency POCUS/eFAST Scenario Courseware is honored as a 2021 EMS World Innovation Awards Winner.

EMS World is a prominent voice in prehospital emergency medical services. This award program recognizes the EMS industry's most pioneering products displayed at EMS World Expo held in October.

Gaumard's Ultrasound and Pediatric Emergency POCUS/eFAST Scenario Courseware is used with recently launched Gaumard Ultrasound™ for Pediatric HAL® S2225, a high-fidelity, portable ultrasound simulator specifically designed to immerse learners in realistic scenario-based exercises. The ultrasound transducer range of motion is natural and its imaging is true to life. Gaumard Ultrasound simulates the function, look, and feel of an actual portable ultrasound machine, offering learners real-world simulation experiences. The Pediatric Emergency POCUS/eFAST Scenario Courseware allows learners to go beyond the skills lab and prepare for the dynamics of pediatric trauma care through an immersive, simulated patient encounter.

John Eggert, Gaumard's Executive Vice President, commented "Point-of-care ultrasound is a highly sensitive examination, especially with a pediatric trauma patient. The Pediatric Emergency POCUS/eFAST scenario courseware provides educators with the scenario content to simplify curriculum integration and optimize training opportunities for participants of all levels. At Gaumard we focus on delivering the most comprehensive training solutions to meet the needs of medical educators and professionals, and we will continue to innovate to meet the educational needs of the health care community."
