It is designed to teach prompt recognition and treatment of contrast reactions. The ARLS course will discuss management of the sedated patient and the proper management of an airway in an emergency situation. The administration of contrast in patients with renal insufficiency including contrast induced nephropathy and nephrogenic systemic fibrosis will be discussed. Basic concepts of advanced life support will also be reviewed. This course is fashioned after the Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) course that has been successfully teaching physicians, nurses, and allied health personnel patient management during cardiac arrest. The ARLS and sedation materials included in this course were used to train physicians, nurses, and allied health personnel at Mayo Clinic to meet Joint Commission Standards or to prepare for Joint Commission site visits. This training program may help to prepare your program for similar evaluations.   Visit the CME Course Webpage ›     Instructors: Available as DVD set or Online Streaming Video Suggested Guidelines for Recognition and Treatment of Contrast Reactions (Tri-fold Card Provided by Mayo Clinic) Course Overview •(Disc One) Sedation of the Pediatric Patient - Length: 38:27 Mark S.
