believe that the planned schedule continues to provide excellent continuing education in emergency
medicine and have worked hard to bring in speakers that will provide new knowledge and techniques
important for EMS providers to perform appropriate patient care. This year’s speakers have been
chosen from those that have presented in the past as well as some new to this conference. Two
preconference presentations will offer new certifications for some in the Four Corners region:
Emergency Provider ACLS and EMS Asst. Instructor. During the regular symposium days, attendees will
have the opportunity to choose from a variety of programs including hands on training as well as
lectures.

Danny Barela
Shock for the EMT
Ann Bellows
Examines the rare and often catastrophic issue of
pediatric stroke. Using a case based approach and
interactive discussion; we will confront the unique
challenges in recognizing and treating patients with
stroke from newborn to adolescence.
This session will address the shock patient and the
changes we are seeing in care and why they are occurring.
So often we get a protocol change, but not a why – this
class will address the whys of care and what you need to
focus on when caring for a shock patient.

Reuben Farnsworth
We’ve all done them before, and many of us love them;

Trauma Rich Environment. Have you ever stopped to
consider some of the common injuries that we see from
rodeo accidents, and even more importantly, we will
discuss the multi-faceted aspect of team safety in the
rodeo environment. Be ready for some great pictures,
videos and discussion about the wild world of rodeo
trauma.
Let’s Run Some Calls
Fidel Garcia
Extreme Cases in Pediatric Trauma I
David Seastrom
Children have a habit of getting into things and places they
aren’t supposed to. This lecture will review some of the
uncommon injuries found in the pediatric trauma
population. Some cases in this presentation are humorous
while others are of a very serious nature. Some less
common alternative treatments will be reviewed with
these cases.
Situational Awareness: It Isn’t Rocket Science
(or IS it?)
Michael Grill
As an emergency service provider, your situational
awareness of what is going on – with you, your crew, and
your patient – is absolutely crucial to provide the very best
patient care. Mistakes do not, never have, and never will
cause injury or harm to us or our patients. What, then,
DOES cause us harm? This presentation focuses on the
concept of situational awareness, a component of crew
resource management taught to all commercial aviation
personnel in the event of an in-flight emergency.
You Called an Ambulance for This!?
Translated into the emergency medical environment,

What better way to learn than running calls. In this
session we will run scenarios on a variety of calls. The
student will respond and take care of the patient as a real

and weaknesses. This class is designed to be a

involved. Guaranteed to make you think and act.

A Tale of Two Women
Gary Wiemokly
This unique presentation will focus on two separate and
distinct case reviews of illness and injury that occurred in
2010 on separate continents.
We’ll review the
pathophysiological insults that happened as a result of
the injuries, the prehospital care that was provided or
not, and the story each patient had, one that turned out
to be something unsuspected. These two remarkable
women are as different as you and me, yet there is an
amazing common thread between them and it’s not just
head injuries…

Participants will not know the type of call until it is

course, we will talk about the complicated social dynamic
that can exist with hospice patients as well as how to
handle these often difficult encounters.
Extreme Cases in Pediatric Trauma II
David Seastrom
Building on its preceding lecture, this will wow and amaze
participants with visual images, case studies and pediatric
stories of life and death. Children have a habit of getting
into things and places they aren’t supposed to. This
lecture reviews some of the common and uncommon
injuries found in the pediatric trauma population. Case
studies in this lecture stimulate participants to use critical
thinking to anticipate the plan of care and largely focus
on the appropriate resuscitation of a pediatric trauma
patient (lethal triad).

you that you can’t diagnose in the field. While this
lecture will not change any of those guidelines, it will
give you a foundation to lean on so that when you call

overdoses with helpful insights of what to look for and
works in some comic relief by some great and amusing
pictures. The spills topic covers some of the most
common injuries in children sustained by falls and their
treatments and the reminder to never underestimate the
occult injury. Lastly is the thrills section where we see

interrupted for too long a period of time, creating
neurologic devastation if the patient survives. This
presentation explores the science behind cardiocerebral
resuscitation and explains how rescuers can maintain the
hemodynamic status of their patients. It will also offer
insights into the post- resuscitation phase with a
discussion of the important of induced hypothermia and
how it works. TIP: Did you know that in one study the
period of time it took to deliver two ventilations by
experienced paramedics caused compressions to be
