This is usually caused by some kind of electrical interference to the source. Make sure there is no metal within 4 feet of the head, neck or torso. Make sure there are no other Vimedix systems within 6’ if they are the same frequency.

All ICCU e-learning licenses are valid for a 12-month period. After that time, you may choose to renew at the same level of access (at a significant discount), or elect to upgrade to an e-Library License (once the Core Curriculum program has been completed).

No. Access is non-transferable. It is strictly prohibited for a licensed user to share his (her) account access with anyone else. Every account is created for the sole use of the registered account. Sharing such access can result in immediate and non-refundable account suspension.

Yes! From the moment a license is bought, registrants have 12 months in which to “activate” access. The license will automatically activate when the participant logs in to the e-Learning system for the first time. If there is no activation within 12 months, the license will automatically expire and the participant will have to buy a new license to obtain access to the system.

The same principle applies to users that are part of an institutional license. The licenses do not have to be attributed all at the same time. For example, if an institution buys a license for twelve participants, they can attribute nine of the licenses initially and a few weeks or months later attribute the remaining three licenses. Each license will become activated at the moment the participant logs in for the first time.

Once activated, a license will allow access to the system for a total period of 12 months.

To obtain an institutional access license, go in the in the "E-learning curricula" subsection of the Products and Services webpage and click on "Institutional info form". Once you complete and submit the form, an ICCU representative will contact you within 24-48 hours to complete your subscription and answer any additional questions you might have.

No. The academic skills learned in the multimedia tutorials of the ICCU e-Learning website provide a strong basis for understanding how to perform goal-directed, bedside ultrasound in the ICU. But acquisition of further and essential theoretical knowledge and skills is necessary to consolidate these basic principles in order to become a competent ICU sonographer. After having viewed the tutorials, the users are highly encouraged to perform as many "goal-directed" sonographic examinations as possible in their respective ICUs. But, continued practice and consultation, and collaboration, with general radiologists, cardiologists and other competent sonographers will be crucial to develop essential skills in adequate image acquisition and interpretation.
