A Novel REBOA Training Curriculum for Emergency Medicine Residents: A Pilot Study.

Background: Resuscitative Endovascular Balloon Occlusion of the Aorta (REBOA) is a potentially life-saving intervention to treat noncompressible torso hemorrhage. Traditionally, REBOA use has been limited to surgeons. However, emergency physicians are often the first point-of-contact and are well-versed in obtaining rapid vascular access and damage control resuscitation, making them ideal candidates for REBOA training.
