Aims

The aim of this course is to develop the learner to recognise and manage an ill patient using a systematic approach that includes getting appropriate help in the primary care dental setting. It introduces debriefing after an event and positive team working.

Objectives

1. To provide training in how to perform an urgent assessment on an ill patient.

2. To outline the processes and procedures to recognise and manage medical emergencies and obtain appropriate help. 3. To outline some of the emergency drugs and equipment that should be held by dental surgeries.

4. To explain the team approach to medical emergencies and the importance of a team debrief.

Learning outcomes

1. Identify medical emergencies which are beyond own scope of management and refer with the appropriate degree of urgency when necessary.

2. Identify, prescribe and administer - where appropriate - emergency drugs correctly.

3. Facilitate a team approach to medical emergencies so as to deal promptly with uncommon but potentially tragic events.

4. Recognise how debriefing can support the dental team following a medical emergency.
