Description:
Hemodynamics, Part 1 provides an in-depth review of hemodynamic monitoring systems for arterial and central venous pressure (CVP) monitoring. Topics included are basics of components and setup for hemodynamic monitoring, arterial pressure monitoring and waveform analysis, CVP monitoring, and CVP waveform analysis. Within each topic area, you will explore measures to ensure accuracy, troubleshoot hemodynamic monitoring systems, and prevent complications.
Learning Objectives:
• Assemble a virtual hemodynamic monitoring system. Ensure system accuracy. Troubleshoot common hemodynamic monitoring system problems.
• Assist with the insertion of a virtual radial artery catheter. Recognize and intervene when complications arise with radial arterial catheters. Identify the clinical significance of arterial waveform patterns.
• Provide care for virtual patients with central venous catheters. Interpret the clinical significance of central catheter waveforms. Respond appropriately to complications associated with the catheter, monitoring equipment, and the patient
