Emergency Medicine — Back to Basics
Life-threatening emergencies can occur anytime, anywhere, and to anyone, and they are more likely in the dental office, where stress levels are so often high. Dr. Malamed covers the areas vital to emergency medicine: prevention, preparation, and the basics of recognition and management.
- Preparing the office and staff, including recommended emergency drugs and equipment
- Recognizing and managing unconsciousness, respiratory distress, seizures and allergy
Cardiovascular Emergencies, Cardiac Arrest & AEDs
