Pediatric Procedures Practice and Playtime Pig Lab

Pediatric Procedures, Practice, & Playtime was developed by Pedi-Ed-Trics Emergency Medical Solutions' founder and pediatric nurse expert Scott DeBoer. This one of a kind, hands-on review course was developed to help reinforce the essentials of pediatric emergency care.

During this 8-hour day, attendees will work with harvested pig organs for a truly unique review of pediatric pathophysiology. Not just hearing, but actually seeing, touching, and performing procedures are the keys to really understanding, "Why we do what we do" in pediatric emergency and critical care. Medical professionals will gain confidence in their procedural skills, and be better able to utilize these techniques with critically ill or injured pediatric patients.

Morning sessions, attendees will be a part of a highly interactive pediatric medical and traumatic emergencies review with breaks that include the opportunity to work with human umbilical cords, pig bones, fetal pigs, and MORE!

Skills lab stations include:
• Intraosseous Line Placement (conventional and the "new toys")
• Airway Management (LMA, Cric's, trache's, needle decompression)
• Multiple interactive pediatric scenarios

Afternoon session, it's time to get messy and work with harvested pig hearts, lungs and tracheas. The hands-on portions of the class will enable students to better understand pediatric emergency/critical care anatomy and procedures… seeing things from the inside out!
