Course Summary:
Life-threatening emergencies can occur anytime, anywhere and to anyone. Such situations are somewhat more likely to occur within the confines of the dental office due to the increased level of stress that is so often present. In this course Dr. Malamed will discuss the areas considered vital to a proper understanding of emergency medicine: prevention, preparation, and the basics of recognition and management. We discuss preparation of the office and staff, including a review of recommended emergency drugs and equipment. We will then review the basic management of common emergency situations
