WA/ACEP’s SUMMIT to SOUND — Northwest Emergency Medicine Assembly hosts renowned speakers and leaders from around the Northwest and the nation to provide an up-to-date look at concepts and current initiatives in emergency medicine.

Conference SpeakersKEYNOTE SPEAKER: ACEP President Michael J. Gerardi, MD, FAAP, FACEPDr. Gerardi is the Director of Pediatric Emergency Medicine at the Goryeb Children’s Hospital and faculty in the Pediatric Emergency Medicine Fellowship and the Residency in Emergency Medicine at Morristown Medical Center in Morristown, New Jersey. He is an Associate

Professor of Emergency Medicine at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York. He obtained his B.S. and M.D. at Georgetown University and completed residencies in Internal Medicine and Pediatrics at Emory University. He is Board Certified in Emergency Medicine, Internal Medicine and Pediatric Emergency Medicine and practices clinically in adult and pediatric emergency medicine. He served for 10 years as a member of the Pediatric Subcommittee of the American Heart Association’s Emergency Cardiovascular Care Committee. During this tenure, he evaluated the international body of resuscitation research and worked with international researchers in de-veloping evidence-based guidelines for pediatric advanced life support. In October 2008, Dr. Gerardi was elected to the Board of Directors of the American College of Emergency Physicians (ACEP) and re-elected in October 2011. The Board of ACEP elected him Secretary-Treasurer for 2012, Vice President for 2013. He was elected President-elect of ACEP for 2013 – 2014 and was inducted as President in October 2014. He was a founding Board Member and President of Superior Insurance Co., RRG, a professional liability company from 2003 to 2013. He is a former Director and Chairman of the Board of the South Carolina Captive Insurance Association. Dr. Gerardi served in the United States Air Force until 1993 when he joined Emergency Medical Associates, a democratic emergency physician partnership in the Northeast, for which he is a Senior Vice President for Quality.

Michael Brown, MD, MSc, FACEP is the found-ing chair of the Department of EM at the Michigan State University College of Human Medicine. After graduating from medical school in 1986, he completed his EM residency training at Butterworth Hospital where he subsequently joined the faculty. It was during this period when he developed a passion for summarizing evidence in a form that is

useful to clinicians. This interest led to a MSc degree in Epidemiology

with a focus on evidence synthesis (i.e., meta-analysis). He currently serves on guideline development panels and as an editor of the Annals’ Systematic Review Snapshot series.

Michael A. Granovsky, MD, FACEP goes beyond mere reimbursement data to uncover national healthcare trends and shifts in the clinical landscape. Dr. Granovsky is the President of LogixHealth and Editor of ED Coding Alert. He chairs ACEP’s Coding and Nomenclature Committee and is a

Dr. Pang went to medical school at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and then completed residency and chief residency at the Brigham and Women’s/Massachusetts General Hospital combined program in Emergency Medicine. His primary research area is acute heart failure in the emergency department setting. He has served as a Co-Chair or steering committee member for multiple Phase II and Phase III AHF clinical trials.

Live models and medical simulation phantoms are utilized to practice hands-on skills. Upon completion, participants will receive an attestation form for training examinations.

n Lower Extremity Venous Ultrasound Workshop | 1:00 – 3:30 pmLearn how to diagnose or rule out a lower extremity venous thrombo-embolism by performing three-point compression ultrasound of deep venous vessels. Live models and medical simulation phantoms are utilized to practice hands-on skills. Upon completion, participants will receive an attestation form for training examinations.

n Journal ClubEach year, Summit to Sound attendees tackle controversial subjects during our interactive Journal Club session. This year, EM residents will present Naloxone Programs in the Community and Their Success to Decrease Overdoses from Opioids.
