Cardiology Master Class:
STEMI Recognition

Moulage: The Art and Science of
Training Realism

TOM BOUTHILLET, NRP

BOBBIE J. MERICA

In this 4-hour Cardiology Master Class, Tom Bouthillet, NRP,
will guide you through a systematic approach to 12-lead ECG
interpretation. You will learn what a normal 12-lead ECG is
supposed to look like, the importance of interpreting a 12-lead
ECG in clinical context, how to apply the rule of proportionality, decision rules to help identify STEMIs in each infarct
location, the rule of appropriate T-wave discordance for right
and left bundle branch block, and how to identify the most
important STEMI equivalents and STEMI mimics.

Have you ever heard someone in training say " Yes, but in the
'real world,' I would have done this correctly... " ? Training
realism in a simulated environment through the addition of
moulage creates scenarios that mimic situational responses
and are specialized to your training outcomes. Realistic
moulage, when used in the training field creates a powerful
story- immersive learning combined with simulators and
interactive, odorous, three-dimensional wounds engage
participants and heighten the training scenario by providing
the non-verbal story-that which must be seen, felt, heard,
and even smelled. This interactive workshop is designed
to enhance realism in simulation scenarios while providing
best practice techniques. This hands-on course will be presented in a multi-level learner approach including scenario
staging, sensory engagement, core STEPS and technique,
accessory moulage, wound development, storage recommendations, and time and money-saving alternatives for
both simulator and standardized patients.

Stress is Contagious: How to Stop
Being a Superspreader
MIKE TAIGMAN, MA

Stress is as contagious as the common cold or COVID. Unfortunately, some EMS providers and leaders are superspreaders.
In a world full of rampant stressors, your interpersonal style
and actions should not be adding to the suffering. In this interactive session, you'll learn about the common ways that EMS
providers and leaders cause stress for others. Whether you are
an EMS provider, chief, leader, administrator, or educator, you
will gain in this workshop knowledge about the neuroscience
of stress. You'll learn easy to implement strategies to decrease
your own stress and your contributions to the stress of others.

Teleflex Prehospital Emergency Care
Procedural Cadaver Lab
DAN SMITH

This hands-on immersive session provides
participants with a real-world opportunity
to review relevant anatomy associated with critical care and
lifesaving emergency procedures. Under expert instruction,
participants will practice procedural skills, such as basic airway
management, direct and video laryngoscope intubation,
intraosseous access, and various other emergency procedures.
Note: This workshop is intended for ALS providers and above.

EMS on the Fireground Workshop
TRAVIS HOWE, EMT, CIC, RF; JOHN TIMS, EMTP, CIC, RF;
MICKI GUY, EMTP, CIC

Firefighter LODDs have decreased over the past decade,
but in many ways, present-day structural fires are more
dangerous than ever for those on the fireground. Firefighters still die of cardiac arrest, cancer-causing carcinogens are
becoming known, and general victims are always a possibility. Complacency can kill instantly or over time, which is
why EMS must be proactive on the fireground. This session
explores the five R's of EMS on the fireground: resources,
readiness, retirement, rehab, and relationships. It begins
with background like mortality rates, firefighter resuscitation, safety, communication, and medical monitoring; then
puts new knowledge to the test with firefighter-down CPR
scenarios and tabletop exercises.

Introduction to Yoga for Emergency
Medical Services
OLIVIA MEAD

Yoga For First Responders (YFFR) offers EMS providers and
first responders a systematic solution to known issues that
are a result from the cumulative stress of the job. Through
tactical breath work techniques, physical drills, and mobility
training combined with self-regulation and mental resiliency techniques, this training can give EMS providers and
first responders the skill set to not only protect themselves
from post-traumatic stress, heart attack, sleep disorders,
and common injuries, but also to process stress in a manner
that leads to growth rather than depletion. Key takeaways
include techniques for regulating the nervous system, drills
for preventing injury and increasing mobility, and education
on how yoga can be successfully implemented into EMS and
first responder training.
