There is a collective sigh of relief as you see a perfusing rhythm come up on the monitor and signs of life. You have just successfully resuscitated someone, but now what?
We know there are key components performed during resuscitation that increase the chances of the patient surviving, neurologically intact. But it is not just what we do during the resuscitation that matters, it is also what happens in the immediate post-resuscitation care phase.
This phase includes stabilising vital functions, preventing further injury, and addressing underlying causes. Additionally, it aims to minimise brain damage, improve neurological recovery, and enhance overall survival rates.
If your patient is not in a tertiary centre, we also have to consider this within the context of transportation to another hospital, or potentially even inter-state. This phase is vital for ensuring the best possible long-term prognosis and quality of life for the patient.
In this webinar we will hear from experts who manage patients in the post-resuscitation care phase and explore the different approaches to stabilising patients for transport, whether that be to CT, ICU, to another hospital or interstate.
Excellent material, well presented, concise and immediately applicable
I enjoyed the contributions of the paramedic, flight nurse, and intensivist that gave great perspective, and the clearly, simple and sepwise algorithms that assist how to think through a stessful situation
