Abstract
Medical Emergencies can, do and will happen in the dental office.
Patients can, do and will die from those medical emergencies.
So many of your patients are on multiple medications due to diseases that compromise their health. Many patients are stressed or anxious about their dental visit. The recognition of a medical emergency along with initiating emergency treatment could be the difference for life and death of your patient. You and your Staff must know how to respond as well as treat with the appropriate emergency equipment and techniques in order to sustain life!
Your office will require proper preparation of YOU and YOUR Staff before the actual event happens! This is a TEAM problem not an individual one. Everyone has a role to play during a medical emergency and it must be carried out correctly.
