President: Paws to Learn
Abstract:
Designed for the critical care practitioner. This session will present management of critically ill patients in a case study format. Decision-making regarding hemodynamic assessment and interventions will be the focus of this session. Key content will include: correlation of CVP, PAWP, SVR, PVR, CO, CI, SVV, SVI to patient condition, identifying management strategies for altered hemodynamics and evaluation of interventions. Septic shock (warm and cold phase), multi-system organ failure, pulmonary embolism, respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS), cardiogenic shock, neurogenic shock, and hypovolemic shock case studies will be presented. Participants should have a basic understanding of hemodynamic principles and should bring a desire to enhance their knowledge of intervening based on hemodynamic findings.
Objectives:
Correlate hemodynamic principles to patients with multi-organ dysfunction syndrome.
Discuss hemodynamic management for a variety of shock presentations.
Format and Method of Instruction:
75 to 90 minutes, expandable to 3 hours
Interactive lecture, case studies and audiovisuals
