Critical Care Nursing: cardiovascular therapies for the critically ill patient

This Critical Care Nursing (CCN) review webinar will provide a comprehensive overview of cardiovascular therapies used in the treatment of patients who are critically ill. 

Using a patient case study, this webinar will focus on the current evidence and provide you with the tools to manage and prevent complications in patients requiring cardiovascular interventions. Explore advanced cardiovascular therapies and discover how these interventions optimise cardiac function and enhance patient outcomes. 

What will be covered?

• Cardiac pacing 

• Intra-aortic balloon pump use

• Vasopressors

• Inotropes

Understanding the diverse needs of patients requiring supportive therapies requires an in-depth knowledge of the cardiovascular system. This webinar focuses on applying the nuances of the patient's pathophysiology to the management of complications associated with conditions such as:

• cardiogenic shock and other forms of shock

• myocardial infarction

• cardiac surgery

• cardiomyopathy

• congestive cardiac failure

Who should attend?

This webinar is designed to benefit any clinician caring for patients with cardiac complications in ED, ICU, HDU, CCU and cardiothoracics.
