From the AMA:
As an emergency physician in an academic medical center, Peter Georgakakos, DO, can list many jobs on his email signature, including assistant clinical professor, medical director of his school’s emergency medical services learning resource center and medical director of the county ambulance service.
While championing the University of Iowa (UI) Health Care launch of an extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (eCPR) program, he could have added “choreographer” to the list given the skills needed to get everyone onboard, incorporate their feedback, and then hold simulation training sessions.
The eCPR program is for patients experiencing sudden cardiac arrest and builds on UI Health Care’s internationally recognized extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) program for patients with life threatening heart and lung failure.
