Trauma & Critical Care Symposium 2024
The care of injured and critically ill patients is complex and challenging. The goal for the Trauma & Critical Care Symposium at Massachusetts General Hospital, aims to give clear guidelines to practicing clinicians who manage such patients. This symposium offers an ideal mix of the traditional standard-of-care principles with new, cutting-edge information. It explores issues in several areas including resuscitation, surgical techniques, bleeding control, inflammation and infection, respiratory care, nutrition, prehospital care, rehabilitation, and ethics. Multiple learning modalities will be incorporated into the course to engage the learner in the educational process and help them develop new strategies they can apply in their own practice setting.
Target Audience
This activity is intended for Physicians, Nurses, Nurse Practitioners, Physician Assistants, and other members of the healthcare team who focus on critical care, emergency medicine, general surgery and trauma/acute surgery.
Learning Objectives
Upon completion of the activity, participants will be able to:
- Apply treatment plans for trauma and acute surgery patients.
- Describe indications for operative versus non-operative management after complex emergency surgical problems.
- Evaluate challenges related to systems of, and leadership in, patient care.
- Create systems to improve quality of trauma care in their own institutions.
- Organize multidisciplinary teams to provide well-coordinated care.
