Critical Care Series: Life-Threatening Dysrhythmias Course
Critical Care Series: Life-Threatening Dysrhythmias Course is organized by Physicians Insurance - A Mutual Company.
Origination: Jul 2021
Expiration: Jun 2024
Description:
Life-threatening dysrhythmias can occur in an inpatient setting, even more so in an intensive care unit. Changes to the electrical conduction system can cause sudden hemodynamic instability and cardiac death. Given this, critical care nurses must understand the different types of dysrhythmias, their causes, ECG characteristics, defibrillation, pacing, and nursing interventions.
Learning Objectives:
• Describe at least three lethal dysrhythmias commonly encountered in the critical care setting.
• Identify the etiology, clinical presentation, and management of some of the lethal dysrhythmias.
Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
