Course description

Katie Kim, RN describes and discusses hemodynamic monitoring in the critical care unit. 

Katie and the panel dive into advanced hemodynamic monitoring and how these monitoring practices help improve outcomes in the critically ill. 

 

Video Overview: Unraveling the Complexities of Advanced Hemodynamic Monitoring in the Critical Care Unit

In the ever-evolving field of perfusion and critical care, understanding the nuances of hemodynamic monitoring is paramount. Designed for perfusionists, nurses, anesthesiologists, and other healthcare providers, this video featuring Katie Kim offers a comprehensive guide to advanced hemodynamic monitoring in the critical care unit.

What You Will Learn

The video thoroughly covers the four primary factors affecting hemodynamic conditions:

1. Intravascular Volume: An essential metric that influences hemodynamic stability.
2. Myocardial Contraction: Learn how the heart muscle's contraction impacts hemodynamics.
3. Heart Rate: Uncover how the rate of heartbeats influences cardiac output and other metrics.
4. Vasoactivity: Discover the role of vasoactive substances in the regulation of blood pressure and flow.

Cardiac Output: The Core of Hemodynamics

Katie Kim begins with an insightful explanation of cardiac output, defined as the product of heart rate and stroke volume. She outlines the typical ranges for cardiac output and its significance as a marker for delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues.

Monitoring Techniques and Tools

Beyond the foundational principles, the video delves into the methods and devices commonly used in advanced hemodynamic monitoring. It encompasses non-invasive techniques as well as more intricate methods like the use of pulmonary artery catheters.

Real-World Applications

Understanding theory is one thing, but Katie Kim also emphasizes the real-world application of these advanced monitoring techniques. She discusses various case studies and scenarios where hemodynamic monitoring plays a pivotal role in patient care, thereby enhancing the video's practical value.
