Safe Transition Pathway: Results of a Clinical Series || Pathways for Surgical Care: Model for Brain Tumors
The Miami Neuroscience Symposium Online will cover topics related to surgical management, stroke management, neurocritical care, neuro-imaging and neuro-oncology. The expert faculty will engage participants through complex cases and novel treatment strategies. Our goal is to share the most innovative and evidence-based clinical practices available in order to optimize patient outcomes in these areas of neuroscience.
Safe Transition Pathway: Results of a Clinical Series
Neurosurgical care can be expensive for the hospital, as substantial costs are accrued during the operation and throughout the postoperative stay. This lecture will describe how to implement a “safe transition pathway” in the hospital setting, and the important role of the clinical team.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the safety profile following a postoperative recovery pathway that bypasses an ICU stay for select patients undergoing craniotomies.
- Recognize the team effort required to successfully implement a new recovery pathway and highlight the potential for cost savings.
Pathways for Surgical Care: Model for Brain Tumors
This presentation will review proper surgical care for brain tumor patients, in addition to coordination of postoperative care between patients, providers and patient caregivers.
Learning Objectives:
- Anticipate the potential length of stay and level of acuity for postoperative brain tumor patients.
- Appropriately guide and inform patients and families on daily postoperative expectations.
- Determine when patients are deemed ready for discharge from the hospital.
