Regional Use Cases of ScanHub and ScanOne
Healthcare professionals worldwide utilize the Global Ultrasound Institute’s (GUSI) platforms—ScanHub and ScanOne—to enhance Point-of-Care Ultrasound (POCUS) training and clinical practice. These tools are adaptable to various regional healthcare needs, providing tailored solutions across different countries and settings.
Kenya: Empowering Rural Healthcare Providers
In Kenya, GUSI collaborates with the Kenya Association of Family Physicians (KAFP) to deliver POCUS training, focusing on obstetrics and primary care. Healthcare workers gain access to scanHub’s comprehensive curriculum and utilize scanOne to upload and review de-identified scans for feedback and credentialing. This approach enhances diagnostic capabilities in resource-limited rural clinics.
United States: Enhancing Residency Programs
U.S. residency programs, such as those at Swedish Health and Eastern Connecticut Health Network, integrate scanHub into their curricula. Residents benefit from assignable modules, performance dashboards, and scanFolio for scan archiving and review. scanOne facilitates seamless scan uploads, supporting hands-on learning and credentialing processes.
Philippines: Improving Maternal Health in Rural Areas
In the Philippines, handheld ultrasound devices are employed to enhance obstetric care in rural regions. Community healthcare workers receive basic obstetric training, enabling early detection of complications and timely referrals. This initiative has led to reductions in maternal and neonatal mortality rates.
Peru: Expanding POCUS Education Through Train-the-Trainer Models
Global: Supporting Diverse Healthcare Settings
GUSI’s platforms are utilized in over 120 countries, offering multilingual support and device-agnostic solutions. scanHub provides access to a vast array of educational content, while scanOne enables clinicians to upload scans for expert review, facilitating continuous learning and quality assurance in various healthcare environments.
