With these valuable resources, you can train as many people as you want at your convenience AND each participant may earn up to 1 AMA/ACEP Category 1 credit per CD. These audio conference CDs are ideal for individual physicians, healthcare facilities, group practices, or residency programs. Each audio conference is one-hour and comes complete with participant handouts --- including references for further study. Here are the details on the three CDs: Pediatric Procedural Sedation and Analgesia in the ED, Presented by Alfred Sacchetti, MD, FACEP
Pain and/or anxiety are prominent concerns for any child undergoing emergency treatment. Unfortunately, the focus of medical care too often centers entirely on the physiologic components of a child’s problem, while ignoring the emotional or painful aspects of a child’s treatment. This session presents a number of cases to highlight the different components of pediatric analgesia and sedation.
Pediatric Respiratory Emergencies in the ED --- Presented by Ghazala Q. Sharieff, MD, FACEP, FAAP, FAAEM
Emergency physicians must recognize and manage a wide variety of pediatric respiratory emergencies. Differences in anatomy and disease patterns between adults and children can complicate this important task. This audio conference CD session helps the emergency physician understand the etiologies and significance of pediatric respiratory emergencies and how to employ rational diagnostic modalities and therapeutic interventions.
Clinical Decisions in the Management of Seizures and Status Epilepticus in the Emergency Department --- Presented by Andy Jagoda, MD, FACEP
Emergency physicians must recognize a seizure, diagnose reversible causes, and treat when appropriate. However, not all seizures are easy to identify, and management varies significantly depending on the etiology. Upon completing this activity, the emergency physician will understand the etiologies and significance of seizures and how to employ rational diagnostic modalities and interventions.
