Learning unit contents

Guided exercises are a form of teaching in which students perform exercises in the presence of a trainer (teacher); we can include directed and semi-directed workshops in which students carry out tasks in order to gradually acquire their autonomy (semi-directed then directed)

In BLOCK 5, these exercises include:

- a 3-day ETC (ERC) training: The course provides state-of-the-art trauma training with a strong emphasis on teamwork and soft skills. This is a hands-on course where candidates spend 85% of their time practicing in scenario-based labs. Scenarios are simulations of typical major trauma admissions in a shock environment.

- workshops directed for the autonomous learning of the work at the shock treatment where the student must be able to ensure his clinical approach, his diagnostic and therapeutic approach in the care of critical patients.

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

At the end of the learning (to be followed in bloc 6) of these directed exercises, the student will be able to:

- show autonomy in the care of critical patients

- independently apply the principles of management of the main pathologies that can threaten the life of adult and pediatric patients (in association with a pediatrician)

- apply the rules of teamwork, leadership, distribution of tasks and structured communication

- know how to evaluate and then propose a dynamic of care adapted to each critical patient, including traumatic patients

- apply the principles of crisis resource management and the debriefing of difficult situations

- know the human factors that can disrupt the functioning of a team

- apply monitoring methods, including invasive ones
