“ETHREAT” Pilot course

A pilot course in the framework of the European project with the title European Training for Health Professionals on Rapid Response to Health Threats was organized in Athens between the 23rd and the 25th of May 2007. The main objective of the ETHREAT pilot course was to receive feedback from trainers and trainees in order to improve the educational package that is the major deliverable of the project. The educational package aims to give front-line health professionals an overview of the clinical picture and the management modalities available for patients exposed to chemical, biological, and radiological agents (CBR), as well as inform them about the public health perspective of a terrorist attack using such agents.
