Uncovering the Autonomic Nervous System
With special guest presenter Buck Feris
This session is targeted at The Autonomic Nervous System. You will finally be able to master this notoriously difficult subject matter that is vital to your success as a paramedic. You will dominate this topic by:
- Getting a firm grasp on the mechanism of action of such drugs as epinephrine, albuterol, atropine, and others.
- Uncovering the mysteries of Alpha and Beta.Stop wondering about sympathetic vs. parasympathetic, what they mean and why it is important to recognize them.
- Focusing in on the often blurred contrasting actions and reactions of the Autonomic Nervous System.
- Understanding why almost every medication used in EMS works through its effect on the autonomic nervous system
- Knowing you can stop labor, open up the lungs of an asthmatic, reverse an allergic reaction, reverse hypotension, and bring the dead back to life based on your knowledge of this system.
- Taking away the mystery and confusion of this vital component of human physiology and provide the key points you need to remember. Not just passing this portion of paramedic class but acing it!
“I am constantly surprised to learn how many students do not really understand this subject even after graduation. This lecture is designed to present this difficult material in such a way that the student or new paramedic will finally have a firm grasp on the mechanism of action of such drugs as epinephrine, albuterol, atropine, and others. Don’t let alpha and beta be a mystery to you. Master it.” Buck Feris - Clinical Coordinator, EMS Academy of Louisville.
