Courses by Topic

Enhanced recovery protocols provide evidence-based guidance on best practices providers can use before, during, and after surgery to accelerate a patient’s recovery. This course will discuss strategies for enhancing patient recovery following surgical procedures to deliver quality care, improve outcomes, and reduce overall costs.

Learn how stronger teamwork and communication across multidisciplinary teams support program growth, and how improved scheduling and workflow management can increase robotic system utilization.

This course will review the primary types of PPE used in any healthcare setting, the hazards PPE is designed to protect against, and the criteria that must be considered when selecting PPE. Regulatory requirements for PPE use are discussed and case studies provide real-world applications of PPE to illustrate the implications associated with correct versus incorrect use of PPE in all healthcare settings.

Review advanced treatment strategies for the management of venous leg ulcers (VLUs) including maintaining an optimal environment for wound healing and the benefits of compression therapy to reduce pain, facilitate healing and prevent recurrence.

Explore different types of ostomies and the components used for pouching systems. You'll learn about the role of the interprofessional team while emphasizing best practices for ostomy management.

Understanding antegrade CTO techniques is essential, as most CTOs are initially approached in an antegrade fashion. Proficiency requires not only technical skill but also a detailed understanding of coronary anatomy, lesion morphology, vessel biomechanics, and procedural planning. This program expands upon foundational concepts and provides a comprehensive, structured exploration of antegrade CTO intervention.

This course discusses information relevant to enteral nutrition, access, device selection and placement. It highlights key points that will help nurses educate themselves, their peers, and their patients about how to select the right tube at the right time and ensure successful delivery of enteral nutrition.

Review the process of normal wound healing, as well as the consequences of delayed healing, and the techniques and products used to promote successful healing. The pathogenesis and consequences of adhesion formation are also explained in this course, followed by a discussion of the methods used to prevent adhesions.

Retrograde techniques in particular allow operators to overcome ambiguous proximal caps, unfavorable anatomy, and previously failed antegrade attempts. This program follows the logical sequence of the slide deck, beginning with foundational definitions and progressing toward advanced retrograde strategies and clinical case correlations.

This education activity reviews the indications, contraindications, and methodology of enteral feedings and highlights the role of the multidisciplinary team in the care of patients requiring enteral nutrition. The types of feeding formulations will be discussed along with routes of delivery, common complications, and ways to mitigate these risks.

This program is specifically designed to enhance the skills of all team members. The focus is on the essential steps of cleaning, disinfecting, and maintaining surgical instruments, particularly clip appliers fundamental in heart surgeries.

This webinar will help you understand what’s driving the discontinuation of gut sutures, evaluate available alternatives, and determine which options best fit different procedures.

The evolution of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) spanning more than 40 years has transitioned from rudimentary balloon angioplasty to sophisticated drug-coated and drug-eluting stents and balloons to transform ischemic heart disease treatment. Healthcare professionals can benefit from understanding the key developments in PCI care, including current care standards, and emerging technologies.

This educational program presents an overview of rigid operating laryngoscopes, which are critical in accessing the anatomical structures in the larynx for both diagnosis and treatment. Features of laryngoscopes that are designed to provide surgeons with the desired access for every procedure are emphasized.

This educational activity reviews the clinical team members roles related to fluid management, clinical considerations for use of fluid management, proper patient positioning, possible complications associated with fluid management, safety considerations and recognized (AORN, AAGL) standards of care.

Explore how AORN guidelines can be combined with the latest innovations in surgical infection prevention to improve patient safety and surgical outcomes. You'll learn about AORN's best practices, innovative strategies to minimize SSIs, and the integration of these standards with new technologies.

Stroke can be a devastating disease that can cause debilitation or even be fatal. When a clinician cannot determine the exact cause of the first stroke, and without targeted management, the patient can be left with a higher risk for secondary stroke. This program outlines the knowledge that stroke clinicians can leverage to optimize secondary stroke care.
