This interactive lecture explores infectious diseases and communicable diseases. Because both infectious and communicable diseases are on the rise, practitioners need to be aware of the risks of disease transmission when assessing a patient.

After completing this course, the practitioner will be able to:

  • Describe how infections and disease are transmitted.
  • Explain how an epidemic and a pandemic differ.
  • Outline the pathophysiology of influenza virus (flu) transmission.
  • Discuss antimicrobial resistance and common antibiotic resistant infections.
  • Explain the value of correctly following infection control and post-exposure procedures.
  • Differentiate sepsis from septic shock

Practitioners who successfully complete the Infectious Disease (BLS Edition) course are eligible for 0.5 hours of continuing education through CAPCE. This continuing education course satisfies the NREMT’s NCCR 2016 Topic Infectious Disease for EMTs and AEMTs.
