Components of this program include latest information on the diagnosis and treatment of the most common issues seen in emergency and critical care settings and will be divided into sepsis, sedation, trauma, mechanical ventilation, neurological intensive care and implementation of quality in the intensive care unit (ICU).
Dr. Ayesha Abdullah, Senior Vice President of DHCC, said:
"In collaboration with HMSDC, we aim to provide high standard healthcare CME programs and educational opportunities throughout the year. This particular Practi-Med course will provide latest updates on critical care to healthcare professionals across the region."
Physicians worldwide rely on CME, specifically to stay current on new treatment options. The CME credits are now recognized by the Ministry of Health as well as Dubai and Abu Dhabi Health Authorities. HMSDC has designated this educational activity a maximum of 11.5 CME credit hours.
Dr Alan Lisbon, Acting Head of the Department of Anesthesia and Critical Care at BIDMC and the Associate Professor of Anesthesia at Harvard Medical School in Boston is the course director for this program. Delegates invited to participate in the program will include internal, critical care and emergency medicine specialists, cardiologists, anesthesiologists, critical care surgeons and general physicians, as well as, medical students and nurses.
Dr Zahra Baalawi, the Director of Education at HMSDC, said:
"The program will provide important information to help us find the most effective ways to care for patients in critical care. Whether and how to use drugs for sedation in intensive care units or updates on trauma care are important current issues in this field. We now offer evidence-based, accredited programs to help clinicians and patients make more informed decisions."
Research demonstrates that physician learning outcomes are higher when delivered by a multi-channel curriculum through catering to different learning styles and, therefore, the course will involve lectures, panel discussions and interactive break-out sessions with smaller groups. Throughout the presentations, participants will have the opportunity to personally interact with the industry's leading researchers to discuss latest advancements in the field of critical care.
The continuing education programs are an integral part to develop DHCC into a centre of excellence for healthcare delivery, education and research.
