Anaesthesia of the hemodynamically unstable patient (for Nurses)
(inkl. USt.)
All anaesthetics can be a challenge let alone, having the patient unstable to begin with. Tailoring the best anaesthetic plan to the individual requirements can be even more challenging. This lecture will cover topics that will assist you with the unstable patient, including history taking, how to stabilise the patient before inductions, what to expect, how to pick up on early changes and what we can do to make them more stable.
Hemodynamically unstable patients are not necessarily sick patients, so with these patients we change the approach of the anaesthetic, so that we can hopefully avoid complications, however if we do see those complications, they may need different treatment to a healthy patient, so some handy hints will be given on what to think about before a treatment plan is chosen.
