Stand by, we'll show you...
We are looking to appoint a Clinical Fellow in Intensive Care Medicine with a specific interest in the use of echocardiography and ultrasound in critically ill patients. It is a 12 month fixed term post with duties at the Royal Derby Hospital
.
The job will help fill the knowledge and experience gap that many trainees and clinicians have in using echocardiography and ultrasound on ICU. It is anticipated that fellows who complete a year would be able to apply for FICE accreditation, gain considerable experience in teaching and supervising both TTE and TOE, publish research in this area and have a working knowledge of the use of focused ultrasound in critically ill patients.
The appointee will work on the ICU with a 1:8 on call. This post offers the appointee the opportunity to gain experience in TTE, TOE, lung and focused abdominal ultrasound, No previous experience in these areas is required. Once trained, the appointee will also use the simulator to run teaching sessions and help deliver our accredited echo course. TOE is gradually being introduced into the anaesthetic service and the fellow would be expected to help expand this role.
About usThe ICU work closely with the cardiology department and the appointee will be offered the opportunity to attend and contribute to the monthly joint ECHO meeting and to work with echo technicians in the department. If the appointee wishes to obtain full BSE accreditation, they will be able to join the training program run by the department of clinical measurement whilst they are in this post.
We have several audit and research projects that the appointee could contribute to
.
It will be possible to incorporate some anaesthetic sessions if the appointee wishes.
