CARE Hospitals, Banjara Hills, in collaboration with the Society for Emergency Medicine India (SEMI), hosted the National Ultrasound Life Support (NULS) Workshop, an advanced clinical learning initiative designed to equip physicians across India with critical point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) skills.

The workshop provided hands-on training to emergency and critical care physicians on life-saving ultrasound techniques for use in high-pressure clinical scenarios such as trauma, cardiac arrest, and shock. The program, accredited by the Telangana State Medical Council with two credit hours, featured live demonstrations, simulation modules, and interactive sessions on protocols like eFAST, RUSH, IVC, Lung, and Cardiac Ultrasound.

Dr. Kiran Kumar Varma K, Associate Clinical Director, Zonal HOD (Banjara Hills and Malakpet), Department of Emergency Medicine, CARE Hospitals and Course Director for NULS, shared ‘Ultrasound is now a cornerstone of emergency diagnostics, and our goal with NULS is to translate this powerful tool into routine, high-impact clinical practice. We are proud to lead such industry-defining skill-building programs.’

Dr. Sowjanya Patibandla, President, SEMI Board and Keynote Speaker, noted, ‘The NULS Workshop marks a new chapter in collaborative learning for emergency care providers. As ultrasound becomes a frontline diagnostic tool, structured programs like this are crucial in building clinician confidence and competence. SEMI is proud to partner with CARE Hospitals in driving this advancement.’
