The Advanced Burn Life Support (ABLS) Course is an eight-hour course for physicians, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, therapists, and paramedics. This live, hands-on course is designed to provide the "how-to" of emergency care of the burn patient through the first 24 hour critical time period. Following a series of lectures, case studies are presented for group discussions. An opportunity to work with a simulated burn patient to reinforce the assessment, stabilization, and the American Burn Association transfer criteria to a Burn Center will be provided. Testing consists of a written exam and a practical assessment.

Course Objectives:

  • Evaluate a patient with a serious burn
  • Define the magnitude and severity of the injury 
  • Identify and establish priorities of treatment
  • Manage the airway and support ventilation 
  • Initiate and monitor fluid resuscitation 
  • Apply correct methods of physiological monitoring 
  • Determine which patients should be transferred to a burn center 
  • Organize and conduct the inter-hospital transfer of a seriously injured patient

This program also has been approved by the American Association of Critical Care Nurses (AACN) for 7.40 contact hours Synergy CERP Category A, File number 00018611.
