TUESDAY, OCTOBER 28

8–8:50 a.m. (TU-92)
Heroic Procedures You Should Know
Faculty: Vikhyat S. Bebarta, MD, FACEP
Emergency thoracotomy is a lifesaving procedure that is not without significant risk to the patient and health care workers. Other heroic procedures are done infrequently, but will they save lives? The speaker will discuss the indications and describe the proper technique for specific heroic procedures such as thoracotomy, diagnostic peritoneal lavage, cardiac wound repair, cricothyroidotomy,
pericardiocentesis, venous cut down, and chest tube thoracostomy.

9–9:50 a.m. (TU-111)
Just the Pearls: Bedside Tips and Tricks for the Critically Ill Patient
Faculty: Scott D. Weingart, MD, FACEP
A critically ill patient in the ED can utilize a substantial amount of resources and time. The speaker will cover a variety of topics, distilling them all down to just the pearls. This is the ultimate lecture for the ADHD emergency physician. The speaker will also present strategies and skills to enable rapid assessment and treatment of the critically ill patient.

2–2:25 p.m. (TU-161)
The High-Risk Abdomen: Common Complaints and Crashing Patients
Faculty: Diane M. Birnbaumer, MD, FACEP
Abdominal pain is a common presenting complaint in the ED, but frequently no definitive diagnosis is made. Which patients are safe to discharge, and who could be your next lawsuit? Join the speaker in a case-based presentation that will highlight common errors made in the evaluation of abdominal pain, and how to prevent them through proper evaluation and documentation.

3:30–4:20 p.m. (TU-168)
Fixing Faces Painlessly: Facial Anesthesia, Regional Blocks
Faculty: Kip R. Benko, MD, FACEP
Facial wounds can be a frightening and painful experience for the patient. Using illustrative cases, the presenter will describe the anatomic approach to facial nerve blocks. These blocks may be used for local anesthesia to repair such regional facial trauma as eyelid lacerations or oral trauma and dental pain. (This course is a prerequisite to the “Emergency Dental Skills Lab.”)

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 29

8–8:50 a.m. (WE-196)
Dermatology Update 2014: New Treatments, Classic Conditions
Faculty: Heather M. Murphy-Lavoie, MD
Plant based dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, fungal skin infections—and more. Is that expensive new cream or pill really better? Some common rashes are easy to identify but the treatment options can be daunting. During this session, the speaker will guide you through the options for treating these classic rashes, with a focus on novel therapies and the evidence for their use.
