Early Identification – Timely Intervention – Stabilizing critical state – Helping recovery

The 'Goldenhour Emergency Management' Course (GEM) is a course that logically follows the PALS course. The PALS course deals with identification of a sick child and initial stabilization based on the Appearance, Airway, Breathing and Circulation IRRESPECTIVE of the cause of illness. This refers to the first hour of contact. The GEM deals with management of emergencies based on the diagnosis in the emergency department after initial stabilization till the child is shifted to the PICU for further care.

The PALS module is running successfully all over the country and is very popular. The most frequent question after a PALS course asked by the participant is what next. The GEM is the logical next step.

The module will be based on the structure of The Advanced Pediatric Life Support Course done by the AAP. The major difference is that the course is far more detailed and caters to the Indian scenario.

The Module:

This consists of various system modules which has 30 minute sessions per topic of which 20 minutes are spent in a talk and 10 minutes of audience interaction.

The afternoon sessions are devoted to skills stations. The course will run over 2 days with about 12 talks depending on local needs and 4 Skills stations.

This course has been running successfully since 2007. The first TOT was held at Bhuvaneshwar. Since the module has undergone a revision (presentations and manual) a TOT is being held during PEDICON 2013.

Through the good offices of Dr C P Bansal we have got sponsorship for equipment for the 5 zones which will be procured immediately after PEDICON 2013.

We plan to have 5 zonal TOT’s and at least 4 courses per zone in 2013.

The Faculty:

The Faculty will consists of a team of six of whom one is a pediatric surgeon and one an intensivist. The others should be PALS trainers with experience in Emergency Medicine.

Faculty for this course exists and no special TOT work shop is required.
