Pre-Conference Options - March 17

Pediatric Procedures Lab8:00 am – 11:00 am; 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm

Performing emergency procedures on sick infants and children can be stressful and frustrating. During this lab, you will be given an opportunity to gain hands-on practice in a number of life-saving procedures. Intraosseous line placement, umbilical vein catheters, and pediatric chest tubes to name a few. Advanced airway management techniques include needle cricothyrotomy and open surgical cricothyrotomy, along with some of the newer airway “toys” such as LMAs, Glidescopes and Storz airway viewers. The use of ultrasound will focus on peripheral vein access.

∙ Demonstrate several techniques for obtaining IV access in an infant or child through such procedures as powered intraosseous access and umbilical vein lines.

∙ Demonstrate several advanced techniques for managing the airway of an infant or child, including laryngeal mask airway, and needle cricothyrotomy.

∙ Demonstrate the use of ultrasound for peripheral vein access in young children.

Essentials in Pediatric Emergency Medicine Emergency physicians, emergency nurses, pediatricians, pediatric hospitalists and family medicine physicians wishing to brush up on their knowledge of the care of children should join ACEP and AAP for the co-sponsored Essentials in Pediatric Emergency Medicine.
