This will be the first FICE course run in the North of Scotland. Our local faculty have extensive knowledge and experience and candidates will benefit from this. Places are limited to 16 to ensure a high quality learning environment.

  • Echo for fluid assessment
  • Echo in cardiac arrest – integrating to improve ALS

About FICE

FICE accreditation is coordinated by the FICE Committee of the Intensive Care Society and more information is available from the ICS website. In order to become certified you must find a mentor, register for the programme, complete an e-learning package and attend a FICE-approved course. Thereafter you complete a logbook of 50 studies and complete a final 'triggered assessment' carried out by an approved assessor. (Note that your mentor and assessor must be based in your own institution.)


More information

This course is being organised by Dr Kevin Sim and Dr Toby Edmunds of AberdeenICU. If you have any questions or need further information then please email christopheredmunds@nhs.net directly.
