Improve your management of patients exposed to biological or chemical agents

The Bioterrorism Simulator helps physicians, nurses and other first responders review the latest recommendations for management of biological and chemical agent exposure. Using this interactive graphical simulator you will learn to recognize the signs and symptoms of each illness, and order appropriate isolation, decontamination, diagnostic tests and treatment in 24 different clinical scenarios.

You can earn 12 category 1 CME credits or 12 CNE contact hours from the University of Washington School of Nursing.

The Critical Care Simulator is an exciting real-time graphical simulator that reproduces patient care in an Intensive Care Unit or Emergency Room. Twenty  different critically ill patients are presented and you must manage the airway, ventilation, fluids and medications to improve the simulated patient's condition. Optimize the patient's hemodynamic state with invasive monitoring and vasoactive infusions. Many emergency situations will occur requiring rapid diagnosis and proper treatment to avoid disaster. An on-line expert help system is available and an automated record-keeping system provides a detailed chart for the case. Have fun while you review hemodynamics and vasoactive infusions, and practice managing simulated medical emergencies!

Video Laryngoscopy:  A Primer on Endotracheal Intubation

Endotracheal intubation (ETI) is an essential airway management technique that is normally mastered with classroom lecture, mannequin practice, and attempts in living patients.  Using the latest developments in fiberoptic technology, we have developed an approach that bridges the gap between textbook and clinical application by providing those new  to ETI with a truly virtual tour.

 This short DVD is applicable to all who wish to learn, or improve upon, ETI and laryngoscopy skills.  It provides an introduction to ETI, the equipment used, the anatomy of the upper airway, and demonstrates, in real patients and in real time, the safe and effective placement of an endotracheal tube.

 The authors have considerable experience in the art and science of ETI and by employing real patients and real-time video of actual laryngoscopy and ETI, have helped many learners quickly ascend the learning curve within a short period of time.

 This is a video that will benefit anyone interested in learning the art and science of ETI, including those new to the fields of anesthesia, respiratory therapy, the intensive care unit, emergency medical services, or military medics and corpsman.

This unique database starts you off with a 1,000+ facts and pearls for emergency medicine.
