Advanced Procedures & Human Cadaver Lab

This pre-conference educational offering intended to further the education and training of emergency medicine professionals in critical, invasive procedures.

Although these procedures are life-saving, many providers will perform them infrequently in clinical practice due to their invasive nature.  The discussion and instruction will focus on introducing or retraining attendees to perform a number of critical care invasive procedures. This forum will help participants build on and maintain their clinical skills.
