Each year in the United States, approximately 40 percent of all emergency medical services (EMS) calls are for geriatric patients experiencing acute medical disorders, trauma, or exacerbations of chronic disease, and future EMS calls for this population will sharply rise. In fact, the number of people 80 years of age and older globally is expected to triple by 2050. The National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians' Geriatric Education for EMS Course Manual prepares prehospital practitioners to respond to, assess, and care for this fast-growing patient population. Geriatric Education for Emergency Medical Services, Third Edition is an engaging educational resource that practitioners can consult after the course to help them provide the best care for older adults in every community. A Comprehensive Approach to Geriatric CareThe GEMS program helps EMS practitioners learn to conduct a comprehensive assessment of geriatric patients. Because the aging process affects all body systems, NAEMT's course provides an overview of changes that occur as people age and describes how those changes can impact patient presentation. Completing a full assessment that integrates and responds to differences in geriatric pathophysiology is critical to recognizing and responding quickly and effectively to the critically ill or injured older adult. Additionally, incorporating the GEMS Diamond (Geriatric, Environmental, Medical, and Social assessments) can help practitioners formulate a holistic diagnostic and treatment approach. This new GEMS course manual includes chapters that address the following topics:- Changes with age and assessment of the older patient - Polypharmacy and Toxicity in Older Patients- Respiratory Emergencies- Cardiovascular Emergencies - Trauma- Other Medical Disorders- Neurologic Emergencies - Elder Maltreatment and Psychosocial Emergencies- End-of-Life and Palliative Care- Disaster Triage and Transporting Older Patients- Left Ventricular Assist Devices- Skin Disorders- Ventilators- Urinary Catheter and Colostomy Bag Care- Implantable Cardioverter DefibrillatorsThis print course manual comes with an access code for the course manual's eBook. The GEMS Course Manual, Third Edition is required for NAEMT's GEMS, Third Edition course.

Sul campo, i secondi contano. PHTLS: Supporto delle funzioni vitali in pazienti traumatizzati in fase pre-ospedaliera insegna e rafforza i principi della valutazione rapida di un paziente traumatizzato utilizzando un approccio ordinato, trattando immediatamente i problemi potenzialmente letali man mano che vengono identificati e riducendo al minimo i ritardi nel proporre il trasporto verso una destinazione appropriata. Sviluppato dall'Associazione nazionale dei paramedici di primo soccorso (National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians-NAEMT) in collaborazione con l'American College of Surgeons Committee on Trauma (ASC-COT), la nona edizione del PHTLS, riflette le conoscenze e le pratiche attuali basate sulle prove e promuove il pensiero critico come fondamento per fornire assistenza di qualità. La valutazione rapida di un paziente traumatizzato per identificare le cure salvavita è al centro della nona edizione del PHTLS. Ci vogliono 2 minuti o meno per il dissanguamento di un paziente. Nessun altro intervento che i prestatori di cure pre-ospedaliere eseguono è più importante che arrestare il livello di sanguinamento nei pazienti traumatizzati. Per riflettere questo, nella nona edizione di PHTLS viene utilizzata la tecnica mnemonica XABCDE per la valutazione del paziente per porre l'emorragia dissanguante in prima linea in ogni interazione con il paziente. L'importanza della tecnica XABCDE (dissanguamento da emorragia, vie aeree, respirazione, circolazione, disabilità ed esposizione / ambiente) è rafforzata in ogni capitolo clinico. PHTLS, la nona edizione presenta: informazioni aggiornate sulla reintegrazione dei fluidi e immobilizzazione spinale da ricerche basate sulle prove e fornitori esperti di cure pre-ospedaliere che applicano i principi e le pratiche di PHTLS sul campo Tecniche aggiornate di gestione del paziente, tra cui posizionamento del laccio emostatico, siti di decompressione dell'ago, uso di sostegni pelvici, reintegrazione del liquido pediatrico e gestione delle vie aeree pediatriche Enfasi su infortuni prevenibili, dalla guida distratta alle cadute negli adulti più anziani, alla violenza nell'ambito delle relazioni intime Focus sulle minacce tattiche ai civili e sugli interventi, da veicoli come armi di distruzione di massa a un nuovo diagramma di flusso metodologico di valutazione a distanza Componenti del programma dinamico Il manuale di riferimento PHTLS, nona edizione è la risorsa per la cura definitiva del paziente traumatizzato, che dettaglia le basi mediche sottostanti ai principi raccomandati e alle pratiche del corso PHTLS. Come passo successivo nell'evoluzione del programma PHTLS, il libro di testo principale sarà accompagnato dal nuovo manuale del corso PHTLS, che rafforza e chiarisce i concetti chiave del corso. Presenta un design coinvolgente e interattivo ed è scritto in modo tale che ti senti come se stessi partecipando a una conversazione, invece che all'ascolto di una lezione.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Americans aged 65 and over comprise 15 percent of the population but account for nearly 40 percent of ambulance transports. This is not surprising given that older adults experience more chronic conditions, multiple diseases, and polypharmacy issues than the rest of the population. Yet despite EMS practitioners' experience in the field, research shows that geriatric trauma patients are often undertriaged to trauma centers. High-quality geriatric-specific education can make a difference. With the right text, EMS practitioners can gain a deeper understanding of how the body ages, how multiple medications can create or exacerbate emergencies, how certain communication techniques can improve assessments, and more. Armed with new knowledge, EMS professionals can learn how to give older patients in their community better emergency care and an improved quality of life. The third edition of Geriatric Education for Emergency Medical Services is authored by experts in the field, reviewed by the American Geriatrics Society (AGS), and endorsed by the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT). Comprehensive and updated, the new edition addresses the National EMS Education Standards in 15 chapters--covering communication, assessment, trauma, respiratory and cardiovascular emergencies, medication toxicity, elder abuse, and much more. The third edition provides even greater value: - New guidance on how to conduct a comprehensive geriatric assessment - New education on how to correctly triage older patients and transport them to the appropriate level of care - New updates to medications and dosages throughout the book, updates to ILCOR guidelines, the inclusion of COVID-19 considerations, and more Unique in prehospital geriatric education, Geriatric Education for Emergency Medical Services engages EMS personnel in the complexities of geriatric care and prepares them with the updated guidance they need to successfully assess and care for their older patients.
