LEO to LERO to HERO: The rise of rescue-based policing

Course CE Available CE Available

Public safety is due for a refresh—both in how professionals view their roles and how they are perceived by the public. Whether in law enforcement, fire services, or EMS, all branches share a common mission: to serve the public by addressing urgent and persistent challenges that exceed an individual’s resources, thus triggering the call to 911. The future of public safety depends on increased collaboration across disciplines, and the overlap between law enforcement and EMS presents a strong starting point. The Law Enforcement Rescue Officer (LERO) model serves as a bridge to support and strengthen that connection.

Management of Cardiac Arrest in Equipment-laden Public Safety Professionals

Course CE Available

The gear designed to protect police officers and firefighters is the same equipment that can hinder cardiac arrest interventions. This presentation explores the challenges and considerations of managing cardiac arrest in public safety professionals wearing heavy gear. It will provide an overview of key strategies for performing resuscitation, including modified CPR techniques, AED use, mechanical CPR, and the importance of quick extrication and transport. Additionally, this session will highlight the crucial role of teamwork, coordination, and training for effective response. Case studies will showcase real-world applications and best practices for managing cardiac arrest that are vital for first responders, medical personnel, and those training law enforcement or tactical teams.

Management of Exertional Heat Illnesses in the Athletic Population

Course CE Available CE Available

This presentation provides an in-depth overview of how to recognize, treat, and prevent heat-related illnesses in athletes. It covers current evidence-based practices for managing conditions such as heat exhaustion and exertional heat stroke, emphasizing the importance of early recognition, rapid cooling (particularly cold-water immersion), and proper return-to-play protocols. It also explores recent updates in clinical guidelines, risk reduction strategies, and the role of emergency action planning in improving outcomes and athlete safety in high-heat environments.

Moving the needle: Advances in prehospital trauma resuscitation

Course CE Available

This talk will examine the concept of the “golden hour” for definitive trauma care and how our approach to resuscitation is evolving, with emphasis on delivering more advanced care in the prehospital environment before it’s too late. We will review several strategies, including Tranexamic Acid (TXA) administration, blood product resuscitation, junctional tourniquet application, and Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA).

Sepsis: A silent killer

Course CE Available CE Available

Sepsis is a life-threatening condition that requires rapid recognition and treatment. Often referred to as a silent killer, its early signs can be easily overlooked, leading to delays with potentially fatal consequences. This session offers a comprehensive overview of sepsis, including definitions, pathophysiology, diagnostic criteria, and management. Participants will learn to recognize early clinical signs and apply strategies for timely and effective intervention, helping to enhance the quality of care and improve patient outcomes.

The Art of Triage: Preparing for Chemical Warfare Agents

Course CE Available

This lecture will focus on a toxidrome-based method of triage to rapidly identify the most lethal and rapidly acting toxins that can be used in a chemical attack. We will discuss how the information gained during this process will have direct implications for management of casualties first identified in the prehospital environment. We will also review commonly discussed mass casualty incident (MCI) triage tools and how they can be incorporated during these complex events.

The silent epidemic: Pediatric drowning

Course CE Available

This lecture will provide an overview of the current landscape of pediatric drowning and why it is considered a “silent” epidemic. Dr. Finney will guide the audience from drowning's impact on both the U.S. and global populations to the resuscitation priorities for prehospital and emergency department providers. Dr. Finney will also explore the socioeconomic factors associated with drowning and how prevention, access to water, and public education are the keys to defeating this deadly public health crisis.

Trauma: The Pediatric Time Critical Diagnosis

Course CE Available

This lecture will cover the unique aspects of pediatric trauma, from epidemiology and physiology that separate pediatric and adult trauma. Learn how the anatomy of a child informs the injury pattern and why mechanism matters. Learn what is meant by "falling off the cliff" when talking about pediatric shock and how to avoid it. After attending this lecture, you will be able to confidently manage the next pediatric trauma patient from prehospital to the emergency department. Objectives: 1. Review the current landscape of pediatric trauma 2. Discuss physiologic differences between adults and children 3. Review how the mechanism informs the management 4. Evaluate how to approach a pediatric trauma patient 5. Review management pearls and pitfalls 6. Identify where we are headed in the management of pediatric traumatic injury
