NFORMATION GATHERING

Analysis:In this simulation you are a therapist who works for a traveling service. You become involved in
two different situations, one of which includes the use of hyperbaric therapy.You must first deal with a
patient who exhibits symptoms of air embolism. Later you are asked to assist in the care of a patient
with carbon monoxide poisoning.It is always important to quickly assess critically ill patients. A solid
understanding of the principles of hyperbaric medicine is very important here. It is also important for
you to recognize the limitations and dangers of hyperbaric therapy when other therapy is more
appropriate.You are working in a hospital on the southern Atlantic coast. An ocean accident has
occurred and there are "victims" being brought to the Emergency Department.You should be prepared
for any number of problems. There could be more victims than the ED can handle without triage.
Problems could range from multiple trauma, to burn injury, to near drowning, to decompression related
