Program Overview

Introduction to the 3T - Traumatic Arrest TeamTraining Program

The management of traumatic cardiac arrest is subject to specific objectives, as defined by current guidelines. The traditional cardiopulmonary resuscitation takes a backseat, and other, preferably parallel, partly invasive measures for correcting potentially correctable causes of cardiac arrest come to the forefront.

Program Description

The effective establishment of airway management, thoracic drainage, and bleeding control in conjunction with access management requires a coordinated team approach, which cannot be sufficiently trained in any available training format. After successful establishment of these measures, the discussion about the indication for peri-arrest thoracotomy and the training of this invasive measure on a non-fixed body donor remains.

Program Details

• The Wet-Lab-Session offers a unique opportunity to train in a team configuration (emergency medical technician + emergency physician or emergency nurse + physician), which also treats such a patient pre-hospitally or in the emergency department.
• The training enables the practice of manual skills with maximum realism.

Target Audience

• Participation is open to medical and non-medical personnel, regardless of discipline, from emergency rescue, emergency room, or intensive care unit.
