Emergency Preparedness in the Dental Office
(via Zoom)
Larry Sangrik, DDS is a graduate of The Ohio State University College of Dentistry. He completed the intravenous sedation program at Miami Valley Hospital of Dayton, Ohio and the comprehensive externship at Midwest Implant Institute. Having volunteered on the Chardonnay Fire/Rescue Department, he has personally managed most medical crises, from childbirth to open heart massage.
- Medical emergencies occurring in the dental office can be stressful and frightening for both the patient and entire dental team. Participants will develop strategies to prevent, identify and respond to a wide range of medical crises. Emphasis will be placed on preparing the dental team to minimize the impact of such an event.
Learning Objectives:
- Discover a quality medical history that is both current and easily accessible
- Realize the importance of pre-assigned medical emergency response duties for each team member
- Understand how to maintain a patient airway and provide oxygen for both breathing and non-breathing patients
- Recognize the use of various medications in the emergency drug kit
- Establish protocols for the 12 most common medical emergencies
- Develop a response manual for chairside reference during a medical emergency
