Scott Shappell Speaking Topics
Claritin, Tylenol PM, Sudafed, NyQuil … Why do we prohibit the use of over-the-counter (OTC) medications? What about my prescription for Adderall, Ambien, Zoloft, or Cialis? This session will describe how prescription and OTC medications can have multiple side effects and why it is strongly recommended that you consult an aviation medicine expert before taking them. This lecture will describe how even everyday medications can have unwanted consequences. So bring your pill box with you as we will explore how to take the mystery out of the drug inserts and make an educated assessment of your risks.
How can two aircraft impact in the air when it's clear and a million? Ever looked at something but didn't see it? How do magicians make a living? Can we overcome illusions? How does change blindness influence aviation safety? Why do I need glasses as I get older? These are just a few questions that this session will answer. If you fly, don't miss this session … it just might save your life!
Since the early 1980s, Helicopter Emergency Medical Service (HEMS) operations have come under repeated scrutiny for their elevated accident rate. Although the accident rate today is much lower than it was thirty years ago, it is still high enough to be a subject of inquiry and concern by government agencies, EMS organizations, and popular media. While there is a diversity of opinion on the causes and solutions of this problem, the consensus in the relevant literature is that the majority of HEMS accidents are caused by human error. To this end, this presentation will describe our analyses of the last twelve years of HEMS accident reports from the NTSB. The primary focus was categorizing the types of human error present using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS). Other characteristics of these accidents such as geographical location, phase of flight, time of day, and pilot experience were also compiled in an attempt to uncover associations between accident profiles and the nature of human error present.
This fast-paced, entertaining, and dynamic presentation is designed to give participants an understanding of the underlying principles associated with spatial disorientation and those things that influence our ability to know our orientation in space. Complete with in-class demonstrations, participants in this session can expect to leave the room with a solid understanding of why head colds, some over-the-counter medications, and alcohol can influence spatial orientation. Equally important, participants will understand the conditions that set pilots up for accidents such as black-hole approaches, somatogravic illusion, cross-coupling coriolis effect, and much more.
Errors in the workplace are often the result of human factors at the organizational, supervisory and front line level of the your operations. An innovative method for managing these threats is the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS) so that accurate analysis and tracking can be conducted and effective intervention programs can be developed. In this brief talk, you will learn to implement the HFACS and employ this method to analyze human error in the workplace.
