Lebanon – Dr. George Abi Saad

  1. Lebanon is a small country with about 4 million to 4.5 million

  2. Site Visit- November 2008: Dr. Chris Kaufmann & Dr. Claus Falck Larsen

  3. Went to Fujairah for the Student and Instructor course in 2009. We graduated in October of 2009.

  4. The Inaugural Course – November 8, 2010

    1. Both courses: Student Course and Instructor Course provided back to back

    1. Committees were formed

    2. Celebration of the 20th year anniversary of ATLS in SA

  7. Challenges

    1. Other courses: German course given by another University in town. Short & different but it’s an alternative. Costs less.

    2. ATLS is not a prerequisite in University programs, Trauma centers, or different Emergency Departments.

    3. Relatively expensive

    4. Doctors are convinced that they’re “ok without it”

    5. Hospitals in the nation are not properly classified, Trauma or otherwise.

    6. There is a fight against ATLS and its “exclusivity”.

    7. Language problems.

    8. The course is not endorsed by the Lebanese Order of Physicians or Ministry of health.

    9. Sometimes we have an issue with the volume of trauma victims.

  8. We have a strategy and funds for other courses like ATCN and ATOM. We’d like to help bring ATCN and PHTLS to Lebanon.
