Ultrasound Assisted Lumbar Puncture

Enhancing Precision Through Point-of-Care Ultrasound

Advancing Acute Care Through Point-of-Care Ultrasound, Innovation and Multidisciplinary Collaboration

The Ultrasound-Assisted Lumbar Puncture Course was a practical POCUS Wales training session designed to introduce clinicians to the use of ultrasound in planning and performing lumbar puncture procedures.

The course focused on how ultrasound can help clinicians identify relevant spinal anatomy, select an appropriate insertion site, and improve procedural confidence—particularly when traditional anatomical landmarks may be difficult to identify.
