Tucson, AZ - Western Regional SAEM:
Dr. Taira presented "The Impact of a Novel, Resource-Appropriate Resuscitation Curriculum on Nicaraguan Resident Physician Management of Cardiac Arrest." This research concluded that Nicaraguan resident physicians improved the ability to manage simulated cardiac arrest scenarios after participating in the Project SEMILLA Resuscitation Program and that these skills can be retained long term. Make sure to see this presentation again at the SAEM Annual Meeting in San Diego this May. This research was made possible thanks to the generous support of The Laerdal Foundation

Project SEMILLA is featured on HCPLive.com. See Dr. Taira's three part video interview summarizing Project SEMILLA's mission. Project SEMILLA on HCPLive.com

Project SEMILLA receives a new grant from the International Foundation to continue the training of Nicaraguan physician experts as instructors in the Project SEMILLA Resuscitation program.
