Perioperative Advanced Cardiac Life Support
Cardiac arrest in the peri-operative setting is relatively rare, and for numerous reasons, knowing when to initiate CPR can be difficult. Formulation of an appropriate differential diagnosis and rapid application of targeted interventions are critical for good patient outcome.
Join us to hear Dr. Gerald Maccioli identify the rare and complex pre-arrest, circulatory crises that require immediate response; and provide principles of monitoring and management of ventilation, gas trapping, and resuscitation to hemodynamic instability and cardiac arrest.
