Description :
The Evidence-Based Clinical Care initiatives provide the structure and guidance for Baptist Health South Florida in the design, adoption, and implementation of relevant and up-to-date synthesized, research-based clinical pathways and protocols that can be measured in real-time across the entire patient episode of care, in order to eliminate clinical variation, improve patient safety and reduce cost. Clinical pathways are continually updated and adjusted. This course will provide the healthcare team with strategies to prevent delirium in the inpatient setting and to manage these patients with non-pharmacological and pharmacological approaches in both critical care and inpatient settings.
Learning Objectives :
• Recognize signs and symptoms of delirium in hospitalized patients.
• Identify patients at risk for developing delirium and implement prevention techniques to mitigate risk during their inpatient care.
• Adopt an interdisciplinary approach to the management of delirium in hospitalized patients.
• Implement the CAM assessment tool.
• Utilize the electronic medical record to adhere to evidence-based clinical care order sets related to delirium in medical/surgical and critical care settings.
• Explain the evidence-based data supporting pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions to manage patients with delirium in both inpatient and critical care settings
Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
