More About the Webinar
Pain is the most common complaint encountered in the Emergency Department (ED). Opioids are commonly used but the Emergency Medicine Shared Interest Group (SIG) believes in maximizing the use of multimodal pain regimens to treat commonly encountered painful complaints in the ED. To achieve this, they are conducting a webinar where pain and Emergency Medicine-trained doctors will discuss their tricks and tips for treating patients while being judicious with opioid use. The webinar will feature a discussion panel where speakers will present different painful scenarios and discuss how to treat them while presenting the latest research.
