About The Webinar

Cardiac emergencies require urgent attention, and delay of treatment to these patients may cause fatalities. Understanding how the condition will affect the patient is key to understanding treatment efficacy and the importance of the nurses role within the management of these patients.
This webinar will take an in-depth look at emergency management and treatment of common cardiac emergencies that present to the practice. During this one hour session, top tips and deeper understanding of pathophysiology, clinical symptoms, arrhythmias, treatment and nursing considerations will be addressed. A comprehensive focus on ECG interpretation and introduction to ultrasound techniques through case studies will help the nurse with case management and specific topics covered include congestive heart failure, pericardial effusion and aortic thromboembolism.
