Resuscitation for Emergency Physicians (REP) is the first integrated resuscitation course developed by an emergency medicine professional society that is tailored to the needs of emergency physicians (EPs). REP encompasses a broad spectrum of topics and provides you with the knowledge and skillsets to expertly resuscitate conditions such as adult and pediatric cardiac arrest, acute respiratory failure, and life-threatening critical disorders in the areas of neurocritical care, trauma, and sepsis. EPs who want to take a single resuscitation course taught at an advanced level (rather than taking ACLS, PALS and ATLS) will find REP to be an outstanding experience. Quite simply, this course will help you save lives!
