The National Emergency Airaway Training Program was the brain child of Prof. Ahmed. He was also the recient of the INDUSEM Academician and Researcher of the Year award in 2009.
Keeping in view that the health care workers usually fail to respond to refractory cardiac arrest situation, it had been structured to make them aware the 5H and 5T. It addressed individually the reversible causes of cardiac arrest and their management. It had 8 contact hours divided into two sessions with one hour lunch. First Session dealt with 6 video clippings of 10 mints each, to make the delegates aware about the basics and what they would learn over the next 6 hours. Second Session comprised of Hands-on training at 6 different workstations, where the delegates rotated in groups. The workstations comprised of 1) Airway management with Intubation and Supraglottics, 2) Central Venous cannulation, 3) ABG Analysis with Electrolyte imbalances and management, 4) ECG analysis and management, 5) USG in line with RUSH protocol and FAST, 6) Insertion of ICTD. The course began with a pre-workshop questionnaire and ended with a post workshop evaluation and feedback from delegates. The delegates were certified at the end of the workshop.
“I was very pleased at the Academic methodology followed to design this Unique Skills Course with a focus on Cardiac Resuscitation. Clinical Skills beyond Cardiac Compressions are very crucial to the existence of High Quality Resuscitation and they directly impact Return of Spontaneous Circulation Post Resuscitation. We at INDUSEM-ACEE will further improvise and perfect the contents of the course so we can offer maximum benefit to the trainees” said INDUSEM Country Director Professor Dr. Sanjeev Bhoi.
