Who Should Attend? All health care professionals who are not trained as intensivists but whose clinical duties involve the care of critically ill patients, including: n Emergency medicine physicians n Hospitalists and nocturnists at community hospitals n Family practitioners n Critical care physicians n Obstetrician-Gynecologists n Surgeons n Anesthesiologists n PAs n Nurse practitioners n Other health care professionals who are commonly involved in the care of critically ill patients in intensive care settings Course Description Keeping pace with the rapid changes in evidencebased critical care medicine is a challenge for specialty-trained intensivists; for non-intensivists, the challenge of staying up to date may be overwhelming. This 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 course will be to highlight recent important evidence-based advances in the practice of modern critical care medicine. The topics include a variety of intensive care issues, such as mechanical ventilation, ultrasound, family meetings, shock and vasopressors, toxicology, sedation, delirium, ARDS, renal failure and dialysis, bleeding and transfusions, infections, antimicrobials and cardiopulmonary arrest. Our outstanding faculty, recognized as experts in the field, use diverse teaching methodologies including lectures, interactive case-based discussions, Q&As and clinical management simulation sessions. These sessions will assess your reasoning and strategies for incorporating, synthesizing and applying core critical care knowledge. The course concludes with an informal meet the professor session.
