Cardiac and Respiratory Complexities: Quickly Differentiate to Take Rapid Action is organized by PESI HealthCare and will be held on Feb 26, 2020 at Long Island Marriott, Uniondale, New York, United States Of America. This CE Course has been approved for a maximum of 6.33 contact hours.
Target Audience:
• Nurses
• Nurse Practitioners
• Clinical Nurse Specialists
Course Description:
You are assessing the patient who just returned from endoscopy following a foreign body removal. The patient is complaining of his throat itching. On assessment, his vital signs are normal, but he appears anxious. Is this normal following the procedure? Do you put him on a cardiac monitor? Should you call a rapid response?
We have all been faced with the clinical dilemma when our patient has rapidly progressing dyspnea, tachypnea, fever, cough, and chest pain. What is happening? Distinguishing between heart failure, pneumonia, and ARDS can be difficult. Did you know that COPD could mask a pulmonary embolism? When your patient is wheezing, do you make the assumption it is asthma? Or could the presentation be caused by heart failure or an allergic reaction?
Attending this conference will provide you with the confidence to recognize early and identify appropriate interventions to prevent further deterioration. We will discuss when non-invasive ventilation devices should - and should not - be used. If you are still struggling with blood gases, don't let blood gases intimidate you! Learn quick and easy ways to interpret ABG results. You will learn from actual patient stories to illustrate the complexities and co-morbidities of cardiac and respiratory diagnoses.
Course Objectives:
• Review the nursing assessment for patients with airway or ventilatory problems.
• Describe the pathophysiologic changes that occur causing the signs and symptoms associated with airway or ventilatory problems.
• Select appropriate interventions for airway or ventilatory problems.
• Differentiate between ventilator modes and the use of NPPV.
• Evaluate appropriate treatment strategies for high-risk ECG findings.
• Plan for emerging treatments in heart failure.

Regardless, at the end of the day we want to feel as if we did a great job, but how many times do you wonder if you missed something? What could you have done differently?
The fast-paced world of OB means constant admissions and discharges. How stressed do you feel when you know you need to discharge a patient so you can accept a new one? Have you met the challenge of teaching a new mom the post-birth warning signs? Does she know how to prevent the most common causes of postpartum maternal mortality? And…do you?

At the core….you need to understand WHY these changes occur and HOW they benefit our patients. This seminar takes a closer look at some current issues and digs deeper into finding out the WHY and HOW, discussing life-saving measures for both mothers and babies. Bring important new insights back to the patient bedside to transform the care that you deliver!
