Ultrasonography is becoming an essential part of the management of critically ill patients. There has been a sufficient body of evidence to support the incorporation of point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in anaesthesia and intensive care medicine training programme. Recently the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine recognized POCUS as an essential skill for European Intensive Care Medicine specialists and updated Competency Based Training in Intensive Care (CoBaTrICe). Following European training standards, the Ultrasound and Echocardiography Committee of the Polish Society of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Therapy issued this Position Statement for recommendations for the accreditation process in POCUS in Poland.
