Recap: Saves a Life presents Managing Anaphylaxis


03/08/2023

On Wednesday, March 6th, the Department of Emergency Medicine held its 3rd UT Health Houston Saves a Life event on the TMC campus at Webber Plaza, this time focusing on Managing Anaphylaxis. The teaching segments included utilizing helpful medical technology like an EpiPen and AED device, as well as performing hands-only CPR. Although we battled mild Houston humidity, it was still our biggest turnout yet with over 50+ McGovern students!
