13th Annual “Trauma Wars”
Prehospital Trauma Assessment and Management Competition
Sponsored by Sanford USD Medical Center
This is a fun yet competitive event for all levels of EMS providers. Participants will be presented with an informative scenario and a moulaged patient.
Patient assessment criteria will follow standards set by Prehospital Trauma Life Support, Advanced Trauma Life Support and the American College of Surgeons. Patient care standards will follow those listed in the EMT-B curriculum, South Dakota EMS – BLS Protocols and Prehospital Trauma Life Support.
Panelists will evaluate participants utilizing the National Registry of EMT’s BLS Trauma Assessment Criteria checklist and PHTLS trauma patient assessment and treatment standards
Participants will be required to complete a rapid yet thorough trauma assessment and initiate care and management. Various pieces of prehospital equipment and supplies will be available during the competition. Each team will be allowed a maximum of 10 minutes to complete the competitive event. Immediate feedback will be provided to participants by the panel. We will utilize the highly interactive training CAE mannequin for the competition.
Teams will consist of two members. Evaluation for this event will be based off of capable care provided by an EMT-Basic team. Each team is encouraged to wear uniforms representing their service
Each participant will receive a free T-shirt recognizing their participation in the “Trauma Wars” Competition. The overall team event winners will each receive a custom coat and cash award of $125.00. The second place team will each receive $75.00 cash and a prize while third place will each receive $50.00 cash and a prize. Team awards and prizes will be announced and presented at the SD EMS Conference Banquet on Saturday evening.
