QuickTime now>>

The PCRM video Innovations in Trauma Training looks at an exciting program that uses life-like simulators and human cadavers to train physicians to provide emergency care to trauma victims. Typically, live animals are used to demonstrate procedures such as chest tube insertion, peritoneal lavage, and venous cutdown. But leading the way toward more realistic and popular courses, the Maryland Institute of Emergency Medical Services Systems in Baltimore has developed this innovative human-anatomy-based program. The film includes interviews with the course director, a long-time course instructor, and participants who give their impressions of this program.
