Cutting-Edge Critical Care Medicine Continuing Education Event
MASTER THE SKILLS YOU NEED TO PRACTICE MODERN CRITICAL CARE MEDICINE
Keeping pace with the rapid changes in evidence-based critical care medicine is difficult for specialty-trained intensivists; for non-intensivists, the challenge of staying up to date can be overwhelming. This cutting-edge CME course is intended to provide core clinical critical-care skills to health care providers who are not trained as intensivists but whose clinical duties involve taking care of critically ill patients. The focus of this program will be to highlight recent important evidence-based advances in the practice of modern critical care medicine and leave the audience with tangible strategies to immediately improve their practices. New this year is an optional add-on cardiology workshop designed for those who care for critically ill cardiac patients.
A PRACTICAL, COMPREHENSIVE UPDATE FOR BUSY CLINICIANS
This program delivers comprehensive updates to improve evaluation, diagnosis and treatment of critically ill patients. Highlights include:
- Principles of mechanical ventilation including ventilator troubleshooting and ventilator liberation
- Best practices in use of non-invasive ventilation and high-flow nasal cannula
- Identification of which patients need VV ECMO
- Tangible strategies for managing sedation to minimize harm
- Management of submassive and massive PE
- Anticoagulant reversal
- Best practices for managing agitation in the ICU
- Updates in oncologic, toxicology and infectious disease emergencies
- Evidenced-based treatment of sepsis
- Physiology of shock and best practices for IV and oral vasopressor use
Our mission is to deliver the most up-to-date practice recommendations across a broad range of clinical problems encountered in the care of critically ill patients via an interactive, highly accessible, and educationally sound platform
PRACTICE-CHANGING EDUCATION TAUGHT BY HARVARD MEDICAL SCHOOL FACULTY
Our outstanding faculty, world-renowned for their clinical, research and teaching achievements, use diverse and engaging teaching methodologies including didactic sessions, interactive case-based discussions, question-and-answer sessions and equipment demonstrations. These sessions will test your clinical reasoning and provide you with strategies to synthesize your knowledge and apply key concepts to your intensive care practice. Our faculty come from various training backgrounds and include physicians, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, and speech and language pathologists to ensure the most up-to-date and practical content is delivered.
