Tuesday, May 22, <strong>2012</strong>Workshop DescriptionsWorkshop S: Advanced Airway Management inAustere ConditionsPresenters: Leon Dent, MD, MS; Howard Klausner, MD, BSE IOE, FACEP;Marc S. Rosenthal, PhD, DO, FACEPTime: 0800-1200 hrsRoom: Canal BMost patients presenting to an emergency department or a DMAT medicalstation do not require advanced or even simple airway managementtechniques. However, a significant number of patients could require airwayintervention, and for about 5 percent of these patients, based on emergencydepartment experience, advanced airway techniques will be needed tosecure an airway. Unfortunately, while most emergency physicians haveexperience in advanced airway intervention, most family practioners,internists, and others do not have this experience. Should a presentingpatient require advanced airway intervention that cannot be provided, thepatient will most likely die. This end point can potentially be preventedby training DMAT physicians in advanced airway techniques and havingthem practice these techniques in a safe environment. <strong>The</strong> objective of thisworkshop is to provide advanced methods to establish an airway in thedifficult patient. <strong>The</strong> course will cover most advanced airway options, even ifDMATs do not provide the equipment. This approach will further develop theprovider’s skills and improve their ability to establish an airway when theyhave limited resources. In addition, the participants will develop a betterknowledge base on airway anatomy, medications used for intubation, thevariety of approaches that can be used, and simple steps to determine if thepatient will have a difficult airway. With the pathophysiology presented andthe clinical skills taught, participants should improve their ability to establishan airway in a difficult patient with equipment at hand. <strong>The</strong> participantswill develop improved skills for obtaining and securing airways usingadvanced intubation and airway management techniques. <strong>The</strong> participantswill practice these skills during the workshop. Participants will developfurther understanding of difficult airway issues and develop better methodsto determine if a patient will require advanced airway techniques prior toestablishing a secure airway. Finally, the participants will be encouraged tothink outside the box to develop other techniques to establish an airway aswell as to maintain adequate oxygenation and ventilation in patients underaustere conditions.Learning Objectives:u Improve your skill set for emergency airway management.u Develop a better understanding of difficult airways and be able toanticipate a difficult airway.u Develop a better understanding of airway anatomy and currentequipment available to establish an airway.Intended Audience: Emergency physicians, EMT/paramedics, healtheducation specialists, nurses, physicians, respiratory therapistsWorkshop T: Using HSEEP Tools to Develop EffectiveHospital ExercisesPresenter: Mary Massey, BSN, MATime: 0800-1200 hrsRoom: Bayou BSee page 23 for workshop description and objectivesIntended Audience: Emergency physicians, EMT/paramedics,environmental health personnel, healthcare executives, health educationspecialists, industrial hygienists, medical administrators, nurses,pharmacists, physicians, respiratory therapistsWorkshop U: Psychological First Aid (PFA)Presenters: Merritt Schreiber, PhD; Sandra Stark Shields, LMFT,ATR-BC,CTSTime: 0800-1200 hrsRoom: Bayou CThis workshop will present the American Red Cross workshop PsychologicalFirst Aid: Helping Others in Times of Stress. This workshop consists of fiveseparate segments and a series of tabletop exercises and practical tips forproviding basic psychological first aid by non-mental-health providers topatients and team members. <strong>The</strong> workshop provides a framework for practicalunderstanding of the factors that affect stress responses in disaster reliefworkers and the disaster patients they serve. In addition, it provides practicalsuggestions about what you can say and do as you practice the principlesof psychological first aid in real-world disaster settings with culturallydiverse populations. <strong>The</strong> purpose of this workshop is to prepare all nonmental-healthresponders and American Red Cross workers in a common,interoperable model of psychological first aid to provide basic care, comfort,and support to people who are experiencing disaster-related stress.Learning Objectives:u Describe how to recognize the signs of stress in clients, coworkers,and yourself.u Apply psychological first aid principles to provide immediate supportto people who may be experiencing stress.u Describe how to obtain additional mental health support for yourself,coworkers, and disaster victims or clients.Intended Audience: Dentists, emergency physicians, EMT/paramedics,environmental health personnel, healthcare executives, health educationspecialists, industrial hygienists, medical administrators, morticians, nurses,pharmacists, physicians, respiratory therapists, veterinarians<strong>2012</strong> Integrated Training Summit 27Workshop Descriptions
