2018 Critical Care Symposium
In-Person Event
Mar 26 - 28, 2018
New York, New York, USA
OVERVIEW
Critical Care Symposium is organized by Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) and will be held during Mar 26 - 28, 2018 at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center - Zuckerman Research Center, New York, United States of America.
The target audience for this medical event is nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, physicians and other health care professionals interested in critical care. This CME Conference has been approved for a maximum of 13.75 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits.
Course Overview :
This symposium is designed to provide a general overview of various critical care topics and will include optional simulation based training days using bedside ultrasonography. This course is intended for nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, physicians and other healthcare professionals interested in critical care.
Lecture Sessions will be held at Zuckerman Research Center on Tuesday, March 27th. Attendees interested in the hands-on workshop will have the option to register for either Monday, March 26th, or Wednesday, March 28th (select one). Both workshop sessions will be held at Rockefeller Research Laboratories.
Ultrasound Workshop :
Point of care ultrasound is now an indispensable tool for emergency and critical care providers. Our workshop is aimed at helping providers gain a foundational understanding of point of care ultrasonography and basic skills to acquire and interpret ultrasound images. We will do so through didactics, guided image interpretation and supervised hands-on image acquisition on live models. Students should feel confident after the workshop that they gained the foundation and is equipped for further skill advancements through education and practice in the future.
Objectives :
Workshop Objectives
• Understand the basic indications of point of care ultrasonography
• Understand the basic principles of vascular, thoracic and cardiac point of care ultrasonography
• Recognize gross ultrasonographic abnormalities of common pathologies
• Acquire basic hands-on ultrasound image acquisition skills
Lecture Objectives
• Understand likely etiological organisms and therapeutic regimens for common CNS infections
• Decipher common abnormalities on Brain MRI images
• Describe the management of patients undergoing CAR-T Cell treatment, common complications, and management
• Discuss pharmacology and toxicology of new oral anticoagulants (NOAC) and antidotes
• Understand the physiology of the heart by using vector physics and electrical axis on EKGs
• Describe how ICU metrics are utilized in delivering high-quality health care in ICUs
• Discuss mechanical assistive devices commonly used in cardiogenic shock
• Discuss the management of massive transfusion in surgical patients
• Describe current goal directed strategies to enhance quality of CPR
• Describe the approach and management to the difficult airway
Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
