Description:
As patient populations in our private practices continue to constantly change, we as practitioners and staff are obligated to provide a safe environment each and every day! With advances in medicine, longer dental appointments and the increased usage of medications, emergencies can happen. Both the psychological and physiological interaction within the patient can lead to life-threatening situations that need to be prevented, recognized, diagnosed and treated in an efficient and timely manner. All members of the office staff need to be aware of these potential problems and take part in the management of the emergency. This lecture will focus on these topics from a general consideration including prevention, recognition, differential diagnosis and treatment aspects. Attendees will be aware of these potential emergencies and will develop a workable treatment plan to be implemented into their practices to "be prepared for the unexpected!"

Learning objectives:
Participants will be able to:

  • Execute preparation and preventative measures
  • Identify basic emergency equipment necessary
  • Employ detection and treatment of: the unconscious patient, respiratory emergencies, medical conditions leading to unconsciousness, convulsive disorders, drug related emergencies and chest pain
