This highly interesting CPD event was presented by Nick Abussi about pre-hospital cardiovascular care.

Critical care paramedics make up the highest tier of clinical training within the QAS. They have additional skills and drugs to manage life-threatening conditions and assist front line advanced care paramedics with advanced life support. They attend the most serious accidents, and medical emergencies.

Dealing with distractions and difficult real-life scenarios was the major theme for the intensive practical part of the training, known as Trauma Week.
