Description
The ADMA teaches pediatric oral sedation protocols that go beyond traditional dental practices to encompass the most up-to-date methods practiced in the dental community. Our hands-on simulations involving common emergencies and airway management will assure that you are providing the safest, highest quality sedation care possible to your dental patients.
The key aspect of our Pediatric Oral Sedation Course is training to proficiency in pediatric airway management. We train dentists to monitor a pediatric patient on a breath by breath basis. Pediatric patients have very little respiratory reserve, and key vital signs can change abruptly. Integrating a precordial stethoscope and capnography into the standard monitoring algorithm ensures safe patient care. Our Pediatric Airway Algorithm must be memorized and utilized in real time in a proficient manner to pass this course.
Courses are held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm. Traditional and new pediatric oral sedation protocols are taught by field experts. Pediatric pharmacology, physiology, airway management, and patient screening are heavily emphasized in the core curriculum. In addition to interactive didactics, simulated case scenarios develop a safe, knowledgeable, and confident client. Our training manual is derived from the University of Washington School of Medicine Anesthesia training program. We have designed a unique training model that ensures a low client to instructor ratio and is comprised of interactive didactics and simulated case scenarios. Our clients receive the highest quality of pediatric sedation training offered in the industry. Our training approach ensures the development of a safer, more knowledgeable, and more confident sedation dentist.
