Pediatric

Trauma resuscitation

November 2-3, 2024

Immerse yourself in a variety of intense high-stakes pediatric trauma simulations, while leveraging your team's diverse trauma expertise and experiences.

Develop your proficiency in evidence-based trauma resuscitation strategies, including a team-based approach to managing:
- severe head trauma
- penetrating chest injuries
- cardiac tamponade
- blunt abdominal trauma
- neurogenic shock

In a stepwise sequential model of learning that begins before BASE Camp, explore self-directed modules created to review essential pediatric trauma procedure skills, focusing on anatomy, physiology, and procedural steps.

Next, actively practice your new trauma skills at BASE Camp, including:
- needle, bougie, Seldinger, surgical cricothyrotomy
- needle and chest tube decompression
- ultrasound-guided pericardiocentesis

Finally, integrate and refine your trauma skills by immersing yourself in multiple consecutive simulations of high-acuity low frequency pediatric trauma emergencies.

A diverse team of pediatric trauma experts offers you tailored guidance, targeted feedback, and invaluable clinical insights to enrich your deliberate practice of each trauma skill.

Following your immersive trauma simulation experiences, faculty will help you to reflect on your resuscitation encounters and guide your learning.
