Abstract:
Especially in the field of emergency medicine, it is necessary that medical standards are developed in general agreement with all faculty members. Standards should not only be understood as a basis for quality control but also as a helpful guide for the daily routine. The necessary agreement based on scientific discoveries and practical experiences, which find their expression in the general accepted knowledge of the specialty, has to be adapted to the special situation of emergency. Taking the head injury as an example, a special treatment schedule will be developed based on an interdisciplinary consent. The resulting training documents can than be offered to groups at different levels, since the content can be handled in a modular manner. The continuing education course will be available in a set of slides and provides an extensive overview of the topic "head injury" and supports the practical application with an algorithm.
