  Workshop A  ULTRASOUND

 

　

This is a hands on workshop aimed at Doctors involved in the care of the trauma and emergency patient. We hope by the completion that you are able to properly operate an ultrasound machine and make adjustments to obtain adequate image quality, acquire ultrasound images for limited examination of the following organ systems: abdominal aorta, renal, female reproductive organs, cardiac and biliary, acquire ultrasound images used to determine injuries and free fluid in the Focused Assessment with Sonography for Trauma exam and finally use ultrasound to facilitate the intravascular placement of catheters. Please note there are only limited places in order to ensure each participant has one on one experience and teaching. We may announce an afternoon session closer to the conference date as was done last year due to demand.

    

 

 Workshop B  EMERGENCY AIRWAY MANAGEMENT     

 

This is a hands on interactive workshop using special airway mannequins and equipment. Different stations will be aimed at different skill levels including paramedics, trainees and medical staff who wish to either learn basic airway skills, update their skills or learn in particular, skills for the difficult airway. At the last conference, this workshop was filled almost 3 months before the registrations closed, so book early. It is consistently the most popular workshop each year.

 

 

 

 Workshop C   SUTURING - HANDS ON PRACTICAL WORKSHOP

        

This hands on workshop will aim atincreasing your knowledge and skills in the surgical management of lacerations and complex wounds. This highly practical workshop will cover knot tying, basic and advanced suturing skills and stapling. It will also cover suture types, components and appropriate selection. The workshop is aimed at junior medical staff and non-surgical staff who wish to upskill as well as nursing staff.

 

 

 

 

Workshop D  EXTERNAL FIXATION AND FRACTURE SPLINTING

    

This hands on workshop is aimed at Doctors involved in the management of orthopedic trauma, focusing primarily on the early management and stabilisation of orthopaedic injuries. This interactive workshop will rotate through multiple workstations consisting of splinting, plastering and the numerous applications of external fixation. At the last conference, this workshop was extremely popular and well received, so book early for your place.
