Medical Emergencies in the Dental Office

The CD-ROM features a section on office preparedness and the responsibilities of individual staff members. It also includes instructional material and simulations of various medical emergencies.

Step-by-step summary sheets on each of the emergency situations are available to be downloaded. You can keep a hard copy in your office or access the information from your office computer for quick and easy reference should an emergency situation occur.

A review of the recommended medical emergency kit assists dentists in ensuring the correct equipment and current drugs are in the office for dealing with medical emergencies.

Dr. Dan Haas, Professor of Pharmacology in both the Faculties of Dentistry and Medicine at the University of Toronto is the content consultant and the key presenter. Dr. Haas is one of the leading authorities in North America on this subject and has garnered honours for his work in this area.
