Are you familiar with the core measures frequently monitored on your unit? Are you confident in your ability to care for a patient who has a wearable defibrillator? Are you comfortable in your ability to titrate and wean oxygen? Can you apply restraints to a patient on CPAP? Do you hesitate on the steps necessary to cardiovert or defibrillate your unstable patient? You will leave this training with improved rhythm interpretation skills, the ability to quickly recognize life-threatening dysrhythmias and confidence to manage your unstable cardiac patients!
