These are without a doubt some of the hidden gems of any boutique conference. At H&R we’ve always had a great time with these, time for instructors to pass on some really actionable, hands-on skills to a small group of really motivated clinicians.
BJJ or Self-Defense for Humans & Health Care Workers – we feel that BJJ is a natural companion to medicine. On all levels the mental and physical benefits far transcend its martial core, and we’re happy to see more and more practitioners in medicine. We always have a lot of fun with it and are fortunate to have some black belts to lead this activity along with a few other aficionados. Even if you have no experience, join us for some basics and learn a few tips to protect yourself and buy time in a few bad scenarios.

The VExUS Course & Doppler Masterclass – Unbelievable how much VExUS has exploded. This is the original course, given by some of the absolute very best instructors on the plant, including several of its creators. It’s a 3-4 hour hands on course after participants have gone thru the online material. Here we not only show you how to perform it, but more importantly the nuances. Participants will get plenty of Q&A time with the leaders of the field of venous congestion, and will also explore other Doppler techniques which complements the venous side such as VTI, carotid Doppler, splenic Doppler and more. There may be many VExUS courses and workshops going on but this is THE One.
