Are you ready for the next patient who comes through the Emergency doors with a bleeding disorder? Employing a case-based approach, this module provides emergency personnel, family practitioners working in the ED, as well as, medical students and residents, an engaging learning experience that will help them to recognize, diagnose, and treat patient with bleeding disorders in the Emergency Department.

This program is of interest to clinicians and trainees working in Emergency Departments, and reviews the emergency management of bleeding disorders with consideration of the 2008 CTAS Implementation Guidelines. Multimedia provide a valuable review of normal hemostasis, the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, and what goes wrong in Hemophilia and von Willebrand Disease.
