We launched a web app for Emergency Medicine Day
Shortage of Emergency Medicine Professionals and services is the main theme of EM Day 2020.
Support us by uploading your selfie in the app, along with your name and clock out time, to show your endurance in emergency care and the impact of fatigue and passion, satisfaction and frustration, anxiety and gratification that comes along with your job.
Looking at this video really gets us in the mood for this years Congress 19-23 September in Copenhagen! Early bird registration opens on 23 March. Find info and prices on the dedicated Congress pages on the EUSEM website.
This Handbook has been developed to support improvements in the assessment and management of acute pain
in Emergency settings across Europe. These guidelines, supported by an unrestricted educational grant from
Mundipharma International Limited, outline the unmet needs existing for acute pain, assessment of pain and
recommendation for pain management by first responders, paramedics and Emergency Department physicians.
They have been developed following a rigorous review of available clinical evidence and analysis of current
management practices across Europe through EUSEM members. It is our hope that these guidelines will provide
healthcare professionals with evidence-based practical information that will help them manage their patient’s pain as
effectively as possible.
As Chair of the European Pain Initiative developed under the auspices of EUSEM I would like to acknowledge the
hard work and commitment of my fellow Committee members and the valuable input received from many colleagues.

All professionals involved in the management of non-vital traumatology: EPs, orthopedists, nurses, immobilization technicians, medical students.
Non-vital trauma represents 40-60% of chief complaints in the ED. There are many pitfalls in the diagnosis of lesions generating therapeutic delays that can be dramatic in terms of functional prognosis for the patient. To avoid complications, it is essential to develop strong collaboration between orthopedic surgeons involved in trauma emergencies and emergency physicians (EPS). This course will be led by EPs and ED nurses in collaboration with orthopedic surgeons.
1. To learn the relevant immobilization techniques of the upper and lower limbs:
a. Plaster
b. Resin
c. Strapping
d. Specific assets: shoulder, finger.
2. To learn how to manage sutures of wound injuries in the ED.
This session will take place over 2 days involving EPs, orthopedic surgeons and immobilization technicians ED nurses. This session will be exclusively practical and interactive. Experts will show how to carry out the various fixed assets and answer the course attendees' questions.
1- Immobilization workshop with 2 groups: All trainees will practice with each other with the support of the trainers. The goal is to provide skills in all types of immobilization of limbs.
2- Sutures workshop: trainees will practice on simulation tool.
