Resuscitation for Emergency Physicians (REP)

Tuesday, April 25, 2023 | 1:00pm - 5:00pm (Day 1)
Wednesday, April 26, 2023 | 7:30am - 5:00pm (Day 2)

Resuscitation for Emergency Physicians (REP) is the first integrated resuscitation course developed by an emergency medicine professional society for emergency physicians like you.

REP encompasses a broad spectrum of topics, including: neurocritical care disorders, cardiogenic shock, aortic catastrophes, mechanical ventilation, vasopressor use, sepsis, trauma, pediatric resuscitation, crashing pregnant patients, and reversing life-threatening hemorrhage secondary to new anticoagulant medications.  In addition, the course will share the latest research and best practices on the management of critically ill patients with COVID-19.

If you want to take a single resuscitation course taught at an advanced level (rather than taking ACLS, PALS and ATLS), you will find REP to be an outstanding experience that will help you save lives!
