VAS 321: Patient Care Practices
3.00 Credits
Rush University
Vascular technologists not only use noninvasive equipment, but also interact with patients continually through the workday and have responsibilities for their care. This course prepares the technologist to offer patients safe examinations and transport, basic care of intravenous lines, oxygen, etc., and basic physical and emotional comfort during and around the time of testing. It offers the student information about general patient communication, and how to obtain patient history and symptoms of vascular disease while respecting the dignity and privacy of the patient. Patient attitudes in both health and disease are also reviewed in order to make the technologist more conscious of these attitudes and processes in a diverse world. Medical terminology is a large component of this course which is presented in order to foster communication between the vascular sonographer, physician, other health care workers, and the patient.

VAS 322: Patient Care Practices Lab
1.00 Credits
Rush University
Basic care of the vascular laboratory patient is presented in the didactic course and practiced in this laboratory course. Activities are provided to practice skills in providing basic physical comfort and care of the patient, transportation, and practice in communication skills. The student will also be introduced to other medical devices that they may encounter during patient testing such as catheters, drains, respirators, etc., and learn how to test and manage care around these devices within the scope of practice for a vascular sonographer.

VAS 331: Venous Ultrasound Procedures
2.00 Credits
Rush University
Venous testing comprises the majority of vascular tests performed in the typical vascular laboratory (approximately 30 percent). The processes for performing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), and vein mapping studies of the lower and upper extremities are presented primarily through the use of Duplex ultrasound. Indications, data analysis, reporting, patient cases, and problem-solving procedures for testing patients with venous disease are also covered. These skills will be addressed in the didactic section and practiced in the laboratory portion of this course. (2 Credits)

VAS 341: Arterial Physiologic Procedures
3.00 Credits
Rush University
Approximately 25 percent of all noninvasive vascular studies investigate the peripheral arterial system. The process and technique of performing a physiologic arterial study of the lower and upper extremities is presented, including segmental pressures, continuous wave Doppler waveforms, and plethysmography. Indications, data analysis, reporting, patient cases, and problem-solving procedures for testing patients with arterial disease are also covered. [3]

VAS 351: Cerebrovascular Ultrasound Procedures
3.00 Credits
Rush University
Duplex ultrasound examinations of the carotid arteries have become an important means of noninvasively identifying and grading the severity of atherosclerotic disease in the carotid arteries in stroke prone patients. These studies comprise approximately 30 percent of the studies performed in the vascular laboratory. The theories, process, and technique of performing a cerebrovascular study using duplex ultrasound is presented, including indications, data analysis, reporting, patient cases, and problem-solving procedures. Test validation procedures are also covered in this course. [3]
