Join us for a 60 minute clinical case review as we unpack diagnostic complexity in the prehospital setting.
In a case-based webinar, we'll explore a prehospital presentation about a STEMI with a twist- a patient with both a PR bleed and evolving ischaemia, challenging the crew's initial momentum and clinical bias.
Topics to be covered:
-Diagnositic vs momentum issues and how to overcome this
-How competing differentials can exist at the same time and the impact this has on clinical decion making
-The impact of competing pathologies on destination decisions
-Using the tool Observe, Orient, Decide, Act (OODA loop) to orient yourself as a clinician and view hospital destination choices through a different lens
-In hospital assessment of the complex medical patient
