On 3, 4 and 5 June, the second edition of the international meeting 'Hitter' (High intensive training trauma emergency response) will take place in Colleferro (Rome), an event promoted by the Intubatemi Em association and with the patronage of the Municipality of the town. Lazio.
The goal is to prepare and instruct with specific techniques all the figures who are called to intervene in an emergency situation.
After a first day dedicated to purely theoretical aspects and the practice of some basic procedures, on Saturday 4 and Sunday 5 the real training will take place: complex emergency scenarios will be created and simulated, where the figures involved will learn to coordinate and carry out procedures on professional actors.
The scenarios will all be set up in more or less hostile environments and will feature medical specialists from different parts of the world, police forces, special forces and civil protection.
Ambulances will also be used.
In particular, on 5 June the scenario of a strong earthquake will be simulated, inside the anti-aircraft shelters of Colleferro: there will be about thirty injured, some of them in very critical conditions.
"The goal - explains
Carmine Della Vella, founder of Intubati Em
- is to learn to collaborate, coordinate and deal with the emergency just as it needs to happen in reality".
Alongside the training for professionals, there will be a parallel course dedicated to the entire population to teach the techniques of Blsd (Basic life support and defibrillation) and for the management of massive bleeding.
"Everyone should be master of some life-saving techniques like these, as is the case in most other countries," says Della Vella.
