Emergency Department Echo (EDE)
SUMMARY
Learn to use ultrasound to detect global cardiac activity, pericardial effusions, AAA’s, intra-abdominal hemorrhage and intra-uterine pregnancies.
The course is unique in that it has continually evolved as the instructor team gained insight into the way beginners learn this skill. Numerous techniques were developed to help the learner acquire a basic understanding of ultrasound image generation and interpretation, making the EDE Course the most effective teaching vehicle for this modality.
Although the EDE Course is occasionally offered as part of a conference, it was mainly designed to come to you if there is enough interest in your centre. There are a number of “off-the-shelf” courses; however, groups can also design their own custom course.
Target Audience: physicians practicing emergency care

IH Mobile Simulation
SUMMARY
The IH Rural Mobile Simulation Program was designed to provide instruction on emergency medicine concepts and to provide an opportunity for rural providers of emergency care to practice potentially life-saving skills. Like emergency medicine, this program is designed to be flexible to varying levels of experience, knowledge, and background. The course facilitators create a non-threatening, informal environment in which emergency care scenarios can be practiced.
With the high‐fidelity human patient simulators, we are able to create close to real life experiences in sites’ own emergency or trauma room, utilizing their supplies, equipment, and staff while building or enhancing relationships within the inter-professional teams.
Skills:
Focus: to enhance medical skills and knowledge, teamwork, and communication by placing more emphasis on learning that involves real‐time assessment and feedback.
- Simulation can be used to improve clinical decision‐making and psychomotor skills (e.g., airway management, trauma, resuscitation) within a multi‐disciplinary environment
- Simulation reduces medical errors through improved teamwork
- Scenarios can be tailored to meet the needs of the learners
- Training can be conducted in a setting that minimizes time pressures present in the clinical environment
Target audience: physicians, RNs, LPNs, RTs, Lab, BCAS, Students, Residents, Managers, and Administrators.

Ultrasoundable task-trainers that simulate the tactile feel of human tissue will allow for the repeated practice of invasive procedures without harming the human models. The instructors will demonstrate the procedure and will supervise the learners’ performance of the procedures in small groups. Formative evaluation in the form of immediate feedback provided by the instructor will help the learners to monitor their progress and guide their learning.

A CPD NEEDS ASSESSMENT
In order to help the BC Emergency Medicine Network to better serve you, please take approximately 5-10 minutes to inform us of your CPD needs. Based on this information, we will assist you in identifying the most suitable CPD course(s) from amongst the existing programs in BC.

Bringing CPD to you
Involving leaders of existing simulation programs to increase inter-professional and interdisciplinary team training, CPD is initially focusing on coordinating and expanding distributed, face-to-face simulation programs to meet needs that you identify. Each of these is an opportunity for experiential learning in critical patient management, procedures, and team-based response and a way to acquire new, important knowledge, hone decision-making, and develop and maintain emergency medicine skills. We work closely with the UBC Continuing Development Division and the Rural Care Collaboration program in the UBC Department of Family Practice. We see collaboration with other regional simulation-based programs as a priority, particularly in meeting the goal of sharing knowledge across all regions and emergency department settings in BC.
