Dr. Scott Kelley is Assistant Professor in the Department of Family Medicine at the University of Michigan Medical School.

UM Family Medicine built a Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) curriculum, beginning in earnest in 2021. All family medicine residents received POCUS didactics, and three PGY-3 residents participated in an intensive year-long POCUS track. A retrospective study was performed reviewing scans logged during the inaugural track year from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 in three ambulatory family medicine clinics.

A total of 577 POCUS scans were performed on 541 patients in three outpatient family medicine clinics over 12 months. The most common scans were soft tissue (26.5%), musculoskeletal (24.4%), obstetric (9.7%), cardiac (7.6%), and abdominal aortic aneurysm screen (6.6%). The three POCUS track residents scanned 225 patients (42.1% of encounters). Non-track residents (36 residents) scanned 64 patients (11.9%).

In this talk, we will discuss the initiative.
