Each year, NYSANA members support DNP research by answering survey questions.

The following surveys are currently open for CRNA participation only.

Point of Care Ultrasound Survey

Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is an increasingly accessible versitial tool that falls within the scope of practice of all advance practice nurses, including Certified Register Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA).

The purpose of this DNP project is to assess how POCUS is utilized by practicing CRNA's, evaluate their confidence and training in its use, and identify barriers that may limit its routine use. The goal of this investigator is to use the data collected to inform recommendations to minimize barriers to POCUS utilization that may include guidelines and continuing education opportunities for both practicing and student CRNAs.
