Ja tor Educa unity m m o C Brief overview of May 22nd sessions: I'm gonna need a bigger Band Aid… Steve Berry, BA, NREMT-P (08:40 – 09:00), Keynote Speaker Sepsis. The new emergency we can’t even see! Dr. Edward Racht, MD (09:00 - 10:00) In this session and introduction to the problem and the challenges in recognition and diagnosis of sepsis and associated syndromes will be discussed. Along with the pathophysiology of infection and sepsis and the spectrum of disease states caused by infectious agents. Helpful diagnostic tools for EMS providers in sepsis recognition including the impact of EMS on morbidity and mortality will be identified and a suggested approach for implementing a sepsis identification and management program in EMS. Prehospital Endotracheal Intubation for Trauma: Elemental or Detrimental? Dr. Paul Pepe (10:20 – 11:20) While endotracheal intubation (ETI) remains the gold standard for airway management in cardiac and trauma resuscitation, evolving evidence has demonstrated concerns about the use of ETI in the prehospital setting. Studies, including clinical trials in children and case controlled studies in adult head injury situations, have shown the potential deleterious effects of prehospital ETI, including worsened outcomes. However, the worsened outcomes may not be the result of the placement of an ETI, but rather subtle and under-appreciated system factors, including the traditional training provided to EMS personnel, EMS system configurations and deployment strategies, and also uncontrolled ventilatory techniques. Pediatric Stroke: Can EMS Bring it Out of its Infancy? Dr. Peter Antevy (11:30 – 12:15) In this presentation, discussions on exciting new keys elements regarding the transport of pediatric stroke patients, recognizing the key pitfalls to avoid with pediatric stroke as they relate to transport. A discussion on critical cases that paramedics may be confronted with which relate to pediatric stroke and understanding the basic tenets of history and physical exam that may help in the decision making process. Brief overview of May 22nd sessions: Sex, Drugs and R&R (Resuscitation & Recovery): The Evolving Role of Hormones in Emergency Care Dr. Paul Pepe (1:30 – 2:45) The concept of sex-related differences in resuscitation will be explored in terms of pharmaco-biology, physiological responses to injury, and the very interesting mechanisms of action of sex hormone interventions in critical illness and trauma. Also presented will be the results in his team's most recent experimental work as well as preliminary human data involving sex hormone infusions. The implications for future research and resuscitation protocols in EMS resuscitation and trauma care will also be addressed. The Dirty Little Secrets of EMS Dr. Edward Racht (3:05 – 4:05) In this session, a discussion of the very unique and unpredictable medical environment of EMS. What motivates behavior? How to navigate the art & science of scene care and an overview of “lessons learned” and nontraditional approaches to improve care. Finding Humor in the Crazy World of EMS: Welcome to the Dark Side Steve Berry, BA, NREMT-P (4:05 – 5:05) Those working in the field of emergency medicine often times have to respond to scenes involving horrific trauma and death, and yet they must not only keep working the remainder of their shift, but they must do it again the next day and the next. How do they do this? For many, gallows humor offers a momentary respite from their sense of loss and pain. Most people outside our profession view this as going beyond the bounds of good taste. However, we know in spite of such tragedies, amusing incidents happen anyway, and that sometimes humor is the only weapon we have. Sometimes it is just an inner chuckle that tells us “we’ll get through this.” We all need to sharpen our senses on calls. Join Steve as he encourages us to enhance our sense of healthy humor while touching your heart with hope and understanding. r ou oes r ut h Em Flo er rid Co ge a’s nf ncy Pr er en Ca emi ce re er g So 17th Annual Combating Trauma: Cleveland Clinic Florida is proud to support the Annual First There First Care EMS Conference.

Standards of care for preoperative trauma resuscitative practices such as prehospital endotracheal intubation, use of pneumatic anti-shock garments (PASG / MAST), intravascular fluid infusions, and even cervical collar application, have been questioned or even entirely discounted altogether. For example, using evidence based approaches, both experimental data and formal clinical trials have indicated that early, rapid fluid resuscitation in patients with uncontrolled hemorrhage may be harmful and not therapeutic. LVAD, a Complete Review Amy M. May, RN (11:00 - 12:30) In this session, an overview of VAD (Ventricular Assist Device) devices in which a description of the path of blood follows in a patient with LVAD. Also identifying components and function of the LVAS including the functions of buttons and symbols of the system controller. The exciting training collaboration efforts in Florida for this unique patient population will be discussed. Potential complications and appropriate interventions in the event of an emergency will be reviewed. Toxicology Now: The top twenty Pediatric Poisonings and Drugs of Abuse and Treatment; Dr. Richard Weisman (1:30 – 3:00) In this two topic session, “What’s Toxic and What’s not in common Pediatric Exposures” and “Drugs of Abuse” will be discussed. The pediatric discussion will include poisons and non-toxic plants, caustic exposures, alkalis, oxidizers, cleaning products, common household medications, alcohol containing products and miscellaneous products. Drugs of Abuse will include the history of drugs in the United States, mechanisms of toxicity, multiple drug overviews including designer amphetamines.
