PACT - Critical Care distant learning course
The European Society of Intensive Care Medicine (ESICM) has designed a multidisciplinary distance-learning programme PACT, Patient-centred Acute Care Training.
Eventually, the whole programme will have 45 modules divided into 4 major areas -
- CLINICAL PROBLEMS,
- SKILLS AND TECHNIQUES,
- ORGAN SPECIFIC PROBLEM and
- PROFESSIONALISM.
The content of each module is based on real life in the ICU. Each module describes a clinical scenario in which the user is asked to interpret the nature of problems and make management decisions. At the end of each module there are self-assessment multiple-choice questions (MCQs). 12 modules are already available
