Emergency Procedures Course

The Verdigris PROCEDURES Course

This 1 day face to face course teaches 12 different procedures to manage critically ill patients with airway, respiratory or circulatory pathologies.  Online pre-reading and activities will provide clinical context to the procedures that will be taught and allow participants to acquire 2 days of CPD.

The  Verdigris  Procedures  Course  is a one day face  to  face  course aimed at teaching emergency  procedures  including management of pneumothorax and management of airways,  defibrillation  and  pacing .


Online pre-reading and activities will provide clinical context to the procedures that will be taught and allow participants to acquire 2 days of CPD.


Clinical scenarios will be presented as a foundation to teach the indications for the procedures. 

However, the emphasis will be on practical sessions using animal models and simulation equipment with expert instruction. 

  

The procedures covered will be:-


  • Finger thorocostomy
  • Needle thorocostomy
  • Insertion of fine-bore chest drain (guide wire technique)
  • Insertion of large-bore chest drain
  • Ultrasound guided venipuncture and cannulation
  • Interosseous access
  • Pre-oxygenation 
  • Bag Valve Mask Ventilation
  • Direct Laryngoscopy Intubation
  • Video Laryngoscopy Intubation
  • Cricothyrotomy
  • Jet Insufflation oxygenation
  • Synchronised DC Cardioverison
  • Trans-Cutaneous Pacing 


This  course  is  eligible  for  the ACRRM  procedures  grant  (anesthetics  and  emergency)  and 6 MOPS hours  and  7  Performance  review  hours.


For ACEM Fellows this  course  will  be  a  tremendous  help  in  completing  your  scope  of  practice  CPD  requirement.


At Verdigris Medical Education we understand the requirement for continuing medical education and  appreciate that our  candidates will come from a wide background and many with years of experience.  


It is our policy to provide a faculty made up of only the most senior instructors (emergency medicine consultants, senior nursing staff and senior paramedics) who continue to treat critically ill patients on a daily basis.  


Not only  can we  ensure that our teaching is up to date and of the highest quality, we can pass on clinical pearls only acquired from continually treating real patients!
