ACC-701: Critical Care Basics
This module provides knowledge of complex pathophysiology, on which the assessment and management of critically ill patients are based. Content areas include concepts of tissue oxygenation, organ perfusion; breathing and oxygenation; circulation; regulation of metabolic status and homeostasis; regulated and dysregulated immune responses. The module will build a strong foundation for further clinical studies in critical care.
The ACC701 is a mandatory module for the MSc in Austere Critical Care training organized by the College of Offshore and Remote Medicine.
After the compulsory Entry Exam, students must complete the five mandatory modules before completing the final assessment. The evaluation has a formal MCQ test and an essay assignment.
The ACC701 has two elective modules (E1, and E2) to help students with limited experience in ECG interpretation and blood gas analysis.

ACC-702: Intensive Care for Resource-limited Environments
This module discusses the knowledge and competencies needed to provide intensive care for the critical casualty located in remote, austere and resource-limited environments.
Content areas include early assessment and management of the critical casualty, sepsis, acute kidney injury, airway and respiratory emergencies, advanced techniques for physical examination of the acute casualty, clinical decision making, communications, pharmacological options for the critical casualty, documentation and assessment-based management.
Additional topics will include managing resource limitations, resource allocation, triage, and ethical implications.

ACC-703: Core Critical Care Skills
This module provides the foundational knowledge and skills needed to conduct a structured clinical assessment for critically ill patients, practical skills to apply and interpret critical care monitoring, manage ongoing organ support, and provide basic critical care interventions specifically for the casualty located in remote, austere and resource-limited environments. The module includes skill stations for structured patient assessment, clinical scenarios with organ support and complex monitoring, emergencies during mechanical ventilation, recognition, evaluation and management of circulatory collapse and complex metabolic deterioration. Delegates will practice the management of simulated clinical scenarios in teams, learning technical and non-technical skills.
This module has compulsory classroom education in Malta offered over seven days several times each year. You can find the dates on offer from the website below. You will be required to attend both the APUS and ICARE modules.

ACC-704: Aeromedical and Critical Care Transport
This module provides the knowledge and skills needed to provide safe transport for critically ill patients both via land and aeromedical retrieval service. The module is based on the requirements of IBSC accredited CCT-P and FP-C specialty exams.
The content includes the knowledge and discussion of the principles of aeromedical transport, including its effects in physiology and the skills of preparing patients for transport as well as monitoring and managing critically ill patients within the confined space during transport. The online module will give the theoretical background for further studies and learning technical and non-technical skills during subsequent classroom teaching and clinical placements.

ACC-705: Advanced Critical Care Skills for Austere Environments
This module provides the advanced knowledge and skills needed to conduct a structured clinical assessment for critically ill patient specifically for the casualty located in remote, austere and resource-limited environments. Practical hands on skills will be taught that apply and interpret critical care assessment and advanced monitoring, manage ongoing organ support, and provide critical care interventions specifically for the casualty located in remote, austere and resource-limited environments. The module includes advanced skill practice during structured patient assessments, clinical scenarios with organ support and complex monitoring, procedural ultrasound, emergencies during mechanical ventilation, recognition, evaluation and management of circulatory collapse and complex metabolic deterioration. Delegates will practice the management of simulated clinical scenarios in teams, learning technical and non-technical skills.
