The surge in hospitalizations resulting from COVID-19 created a strain on hospital infrastructures across the country and it became necessary to implement alternative patient care solutions to treat the surge of critically ill patients requiring respiratory support. The rise in intensive care ventilator uses outstripped available resources and generated an imminent need for unconventional solutions. Anesthesia workstations were rapidly identified as a viable alternative to address the demand for mechanical ventilation devices used to provide respiratory support. This also presented future concern for our healthcare facilities should an epidemic of this magnitude resurface – how can healthcare providers better prepare? This course was designed to assist the healthcare practitioner in developing a solid understanding of the use of anesthesia workstations within the intensive care environment. This course provides education on the use of the anesthesia workstation, related safety concerns, additional monitoring requirements, as well as monitoring/maintenance of the anesthesia workstation.

Having to give bad news to patients happens frequently in healthcare arenas and many times healthcare professionals have not received training and education on how to compassionately and competently deliver bad news. Research has demonstrated that educating and reeducating healthcare professionals how to deliver bad news using a tool decreases patient distress and improves healthcare professional confidence and empathetic response thereby creating a better encounter for everyone involved.

This course will focus on providing healthcare professional education on the available tools and frameworks available to deliver bad news and provide education on how to implement one of these tools when having to discuss difficult information with patients.

Compassion fatigue knows no boundaries and is prevalent to all caregivers who care for those with chronic illness, acute emergent illnesses like they see in ICU, ED, PICU, NICU, and step-down units and their families. It is the very act of caring, giving of ourselves, that makes us susceptible to the probability of experiencing compassion fatigue. These difficult scenarios include having to give bad news, experiencing the death of patients, having intense interactions with patients, and high level of job responsibility that lead to secondary traumatic stress and burnout. More often than not as they continually give of themselves in these difficult and traumatic situations in repetitive fashion, their compassion satisfaction begins to decline, questioning their meaning.

In this 60-minute course, we will uncover the phenomenon called “Compassion Fatigue” and how it relates to you.

Opioid-use disorder (OUD) has become a national crisis, killing over 100 Americans daily and costing 78 billion dollars annually. The current therapy for opioid abuse has limited success with significant side effects, illicit use, and high attrition rates. However, research has demonstrated that immunopharmacotherapy a new treatment for opioid addiction in the pre-clinical phase, elicits an immune response which lacks abuse potential and decreases related mortality. Compared to current treatments, immunopharmacotherapy against a targeted opioid could offer suppression of addiction liability and overdose potential over an extended period of time without placing excessive compliance demands and adverse effects on the person.

POINT-OF-CARE-ULTRASOUND Gastric Assessment or POCUS is a new method of ultrasound testing that allows the provider to obtain real-time, objective results at the bedside to improve patient care. While the current NPO guidelines may seem adequate, the low rate of actual aspiration has given a false sense of security, leaving providers to rely on a generalized protocol. The literature identifies POCUS gastric assessment as a quick and effective method yielding high benefits with low harm to the patient. POCUS gastric assessment can be applied to surgical patients to determine the exact amount of stomach content and the risk of aspiration before anesthesia. This course provides education on performing a POCUS gastric assessment and highlights the high-risk populations and circumstances that typically overestimate current NPO guidelines.

Target Audience: Healthcare professionals involved in preoperative care. This list includes but is not limited to CRNAS, SRNAs, MDs, Nurse Practitioners, Physicians Assistants, RNs, or Preoperative nurses. The recommended prerequisite is a basic understanding of ultrasound equipment.

According to Go Red For Women, "cardiovascular diseases and stroke cause 1 in 3 women's deaths each year, killing approximately one woman every 80 seconds". Unfortunately, the majority of those women did not perceive themselves to be at risk. Nearly 80 percent of cardiac events can be prevented. All healthcare professionals need to understand the awareness issues, risk factors, and treatment options for women and heart disease.
