On behalf of the Fire Chiefs’ Association of Broward County; welcome to the Eighteenth
Annual "First There, First Care" EMS Conference and Chief Michael Haygood Advanced
Life Support Competition. I commend every one of you for attending and taking the
opportunity to advance your training and education. Each year, our emergency medical
services face new and more challenging situations which remind us that your skills must
remain sharp, focused and innovative.
As we are all aware the first and for many, the only contact your department may ever
have with a citizen or family member is you. It is imperative you continue to deliver the
highest level of competent and compassionate customer service. Your presence here today is
indicative of your commitment to that goal.
I want to thank the EMS conference committee for their many hours of work organizing this
conference. The committee has done another outstanding job putting together an innovative
program for all to enjoy.
Please accept my thanks on behalf of all the Fire Chiefs in Broward County. Remember
the lives you impact everyday make all of us safer!

May 22, 2014 Dear EMS Participants, On behalf of the entire Broward Regional Emergency Medical (EMS) Council and community, I would like to extend an earnest welcome to all of you who are attending the Eighteenth Annual "ʺFirst There -­‐‑ First Care"ʺ Emergency Medical Services Conference in Broward County. Every day in Broward County, you are often "ʺFirst There"ʺ to provide "ʺFirst Care"ʺ to citizens and visitors who are sick or injured. For that, you deserve the sincere praises of the Broward County Community. My complements go to each of you for increasing your knowledge and training at conferences such as this. The program for this year’s conference is again outstanding from the caliber of renowned speakers. The theme of the conference this year is "ʺBridging the Gap: From the Streets to the ED."ʺ Four leading (physician and paramedic) professionals will address how the care provided to our patients has transcended from both the ED and the Field, providing a valuable learning experience. The Achievement Awards presented during the conference, is a wonderful way to recognize those who have provided exemplary service in delivering pre-­‐‑
hospital emergency medical care. This year'ʹs conference planning committee has done an outstanding job in developing the program for the conference. I would encourage all of to join me in thanking them for their great efforts. Best wishes to all of you for a successful and fun Conference! Best regards, Ralph A. Marrinson, Chair Broward County Board of County Commissioners

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.

Brief overview of May 23rd sessions:
2014 Ways to Practice Evidence-Based and Experience-based
Medicine - Dr. Paul Pepe (9:00 – 10:30)
Over the past several decades, many of the early standard practices in trauma
resuscitation that seemed empirically logical have come under scrutiny. 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.
