Description

A common reason for transfer to intensive care is that a patients’ status has become unstable. In this session, view Cyndi Zarbano as you learn the how’s and why’s of keeping our patients hemodynamically stable.  When training CCU/ICU nurses, Cyndi often shares “if you can learn to understand how and why we manipulate the cardiac output mathematical equation, you will improve your critical thinking skills – and patient care outcomes!” Cyndi has been a national seminar speaker for 15 years earning a reputation for being engaging using humor, stories, and nursing experiences to help attendee’s “get it”! Her career has included flight nursing, prior military background leaving service as a Lieutenant Commander, and nearly 30 years in various intensive care roles.

Objectives

  1. Determine cardiac output manipulations for hemodynamic stability.
  2. Analyze the three components of stroke volume and determine how we can manipulate it.
  3. Differentiate the six vasopressors and how we select which is the right one for each patient situation.
  4. Choose pharmacological agents to optimally stabilize patients in crisis.

  • Normal and abnormal values for multiple cardiac findings
  • Breaking down the equation to manipulate each component
    • Heart Rate – too fast or too slow
    • Stroke Volume
      • Preload – “dry or over-tanked up”
      • Afterload – manipulating the pressure the heart pushes against to move blood forward
      • Contractility – too much or too little squeeze
  • How the initiation of drugs and fluid options can manipulate the equation
  • Swan Ganz catheters, FloTrak or Vigileo monitors can drive interventions
  • The role of Intra-Aortic Balloon Pumps or Impella’s
