A Goat Cadaver as a Cost-effective Resource for Teaching Emergency Medicine Procedures in Kijabe, Kenya.

Background: A pediatric emergency medicine and critical care fellowship was recently developed in Kenya through the University of Nairobi/Kenyatta National Hospital and AIC Kijabe Hospital. As part of this training, a week-long trauma and emergency medicine course was developed with emphasis on trauma and emergency medicine procedures. Given limited resources, we developed a course with simulation of procedures centered around utilization of a goat cadaver.
