About KidSONO
The KidSONO program will improve the safety and quality of care provided at the Alberta Children’s Hospital (ACH) through education and leadership in point-of-care ultrasound.
With faster metabolisms, less blood and fluid reserves, and a higher sensitivity to changes in body temperature, children are more vulnerable than adults in a medical crisis. Time is of the essence when determining causes and treatments for a young person’s illness.
Specialists at the Alberta Children’s Hospital want to optimize point-of-care sonography — the use of ultrasound as a diagnostic tool at the bedside — to rapidly inform care. The state-of-the-art technology provides children and families with real-time diagnoses that increase accuracy and decrease the time it takes for treatments to begin.
Your Support Matters
By participating in this year’s CHAS Charity Golf Classic, you will make it possible to launch a new program called KidSONO and provide children with life-saving, radiation-free imaging at the bedside.
There will be immediate benefits for children in our community and those benefits will also help thousands of other families when the team shares its knowledge and expertise with children’s hospitals across Canada.
