From the official website of the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland:
The aim of the Masterclasses is to bring together experts in topics of established or emerging importance and to provide an opportunity for in-depth review.
2007 Series :
TREATING THE ACUTELY ILL PATIENT
Keeping up to date on evolving medical practice outside your own subspecialty area is challenging. To facilitate your continuing medical education needs the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland (RCPI) is introducing this new Master Class Series.
It will run in the RCPI over 7 sessions once a month (January to June and October/November). Each session would concentrate on a particular specialty, e.g.
Neurology, Cardiology, Respiratory, Infectious Diseases, Haematology, Geriatrics, Oncology, Endocrine, Rheumatology, Renal, Gastroenterology, Heaptology, Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Toxicology, Medicolegal, etc.
The Masterclass series will focus on optimum early management and what should be done in the crucial first 24 hours. Recent advances in management of common medical conditions that frequently require hospital admission will be highlighted. Early intervention that may prevent hospital admission or facilitate appropriate discharge early will be highlighted.
