Mastertrack Presents: Comprehensive; Evidence-Based Update on Dental Pharmacology & Clinical Characteristics of Basic Emergency Drugs & Non-Intravenous ~Hands on with SimMan! This course was presented by Dr. Arthur Jeske. Dental care requires an understanding of the current, evidence-based role of drugs in the overall management of patients, particularly with regard to medically compromised patients. This seminar is designed to update attendees with current, important issues in the use of the common drug therapies, with an emphasis on current scientific evidence that may disrupt traditional approaches to local anesthesia, acute postoperative pain control and antibiotic therapy. Many dentists are not familiar with or competent in the use of intravenous administration of drugs during emergency events. Many dentists also believe that non-intravenous administration of emergency drugs is an inferior method, resulting in significant delays and/or ineffective responses. Attendees thoroughly enjoyed their practical sessions with the SimMan!
