Opioid Overdose Simulation in Medical Student Education

/

By the end of the simulation session, learners will be able to: 1) accurately identify the three key clinical signs of opioid overdose (respiratory depression, pinpoint pupils, unresponsiveness), 2) identify and administer the correct dose and route of Naloxone within five minutes of recognizing an opioid overdose, 3) perform at least two basic life support (BLS) interventions, such as airway management and bag-valve mask ventilation, 4) communicate effectively with team members by providing clear instructions and patient status updates at least three times during the simulation.

A Multimodal Approach to Lateral Canthotomy and Cantholysis Training for Emergency Medicine Trainees: A Simulation Training Package

/

By the end of this session, learners should be able to: 1) recognize the clinical features of OCS, 2) describe the indications and steps of performing LCC, 3) perform a lateral canthotomy and cantholysis procedure on a low-fidelity model, and 4) demonstrate improved confidence in recognizing and managing OCS.

Abdominal Pain and Vaginal Discharge: An Eye-Opening Simulation Case about Human Trafficking

/

At the conclusion of this case, learners should be able to: 1) review red flags of identifying victims of human trafficking in healthcare settings, 2) identify common indicators and injuries associated with human trafficking, 3) demonstrate a trauma-informed care approach when interviewing potential victims, 4) list and provide patients with national resources for human trafficking,5) understand federal and state mandatory reporting laws and the role of the healthcare provider, 6) determine best treatment options in patients with limited healthcare access, including counseling on empiric treatment of sexually transmitted infection (STI), 7) review management options for an undesired pregnancy according to local institutional policies and state laws for the senior case.

Trauma and Hyperthermia

/

By the end of this oral board session, examinees will be able to:  1) construct a differential to evaluate a patient with undifferentiated altered mental status and trauma, 2) recognize the signs and symptoms of heat stroke, 3) complete an evaluation of a patient with both hyperthermia and trauma, and 4) demonstrate efficient and correct treatment of a patient with hyperthermia.

Critical Care Transport: Blunt Polytrauma in Pregnancy

/

At the completion of this simulation participants will be able to 1) perform primary and secondary trauma surveys, 2) assess the neurovascular status of a tibia/fibula fracture, 3) appreciate anatomic and physiologic differences in pregnancy, 4) appropriately order analgesia and imaging, 5) recognize and treat hemorrhagic shock, 6) perform an extended focused assessment with sonography in trauma exam (eFAST) in undifferentiated hemorrhage, 7) identify a displaced pelvic fracture and properly apply a pelvic binder, and 8) obtain and interpret fetal heart rate using ultrasound.

Simulation, Toxicology

Beta-Blocker Toxicity

/

By the end of the session, learners will be able to: 1) manage a patient with hypotension, and bradycardia while maintaining a broad differential, 2) evaluate the causes of hypotension by utilizing ultrasound, 3) review when to initiate vasopressors and first-line agents for beta-blocker toxicity, 4) discuss treatment algorithm for BB toxicity including high-dose insulin and, 5) discuss the risk factors for suicide

My Broken Heart

/

By the end of this simulation session, learners will be able to: 1) assess the hemodynamics of an LVAD patient by using a Doppler to determine mean arterial pressure, 2) Manage an arrhythmia in an LVAD patient with a suction event by addressing preload, 3) Identify and treat the source of hypovolemia (a massive lower gastrointestinal hemorrhage), 4) Perform clear closed-loop communication with other team members.
