OB / GYN Review with Case Presentations

Selected actual OB/GYN case review presentations for the ALS provider will be presented. A generous mix of medical and trauma cases to test even the most experienced provider. Each participant will be given the patient’s presentation from the EMS perspective and then the case will be followed through the hospital course on to discharge. Participants will be given actual EKG tracings, scene photos, radiographic films, lab values, radio reports, and assessments to determine the case progression. Compare your treatment plan to what actually transpired. This will be an interactive course with plenty of audience participation.  Specific topics will cover Pulmonary Embolism, Ectopic Pregnancy, Placenta Previa, Abruptio Placentae, DIC, Concurrent Trauma, Ruptured Uterus, and Normal pathophysiology of the pregnant patient.
