Teleguided Hands-on Training for Hemophilia: Ankle, Knee and Elbow
The Teleguided Hands-on Training for Hemophilia: Ankle, Knee and Elbow is a 1.5 hour program provides participants with live, virtual teleguided training in musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSKUS) for the evaluation of hemophilic joint disease and musculoskeletal abnormalities. The main objective of the course is to enable physicians and other care providers to use MSKUS as a point-of care-imaging tool to assist with the diagnosis and treatment of joint and muscle pains. MSK experts will be available to provide one-on-one teleguided hands-on training specific to the evaluation of hemophilic joints. It is recommended that individuals seeking to enroll in this course complete the Musculoskeletal Ultrasound Training in Hemophilia prior to registering. Participants with sufficient prior education and experience may apply to bypass this foundational course by attesting to skills and training.

  • Apply standard MSKUS transducer positions for ankles, knees, elbows as needed to evaluate hemophilic joints
  • Describe the diagnosis of effusions
  • Distinguish bloody from non-bloody effusions
  • Perform a diagnostic musculoskeletal ultrasound recognizing methods to detect hemarthrosis, synovitis and structural abnormalities (such as meniscus, tendons, ligaments)
  • Quantify synovitis by Power Doppler
  • Quantify cartilage health, soft tissue and synovial hypertrophy, and osteochondral lesions
  • Describe the limitations and advantages of ultrasound for hemophilic joint disease
  • Describe the Joint Tissue Activity and Damage Exam (JADE) Hemophilia joint ultrasound protocol
