Description

Mrs. Kelp is admitted with pneumonia and right-sided heart failure.Twenty minutes after admission, she develops worsening dyspnea and hypotension.

  • Are you prepared to manage her unstable condition?
  • Do you know what respiratory measures are necessary?
  • Do you know the best way to manage her hypotension?

The patients in our hospitals are sicker than ever before. It is not uncommon to find patients on regular medical floors with central lines, chest tubes, pacemakers and AICDs.

Some nursing homes are accepting patients on ventilators, and patients are now being sent home on vasoactive drips such as dobutamine. Even though acuity levels are higher you are still caring for many patients and don’t have the luxury of frequent, comprehensive assessments.

Therefore, it is important to be able to rapidly assess and implement appropriate interventions.

Watch this recording to sharpen your skills and leave prepared to identify and manage your next patient emergency.
