This Pediatric Quick Guide to Cardiopulmonary Care reflects current practice and changes in technology. Patients cared for in pediatric critical care units can range from newborns to adults, with a variety of illnesses and injuries, acquired or congenital. Caring for such a wide range of ages, sizes and disease states present constant challenges within the pediatric critical care environment as patient acuity has also increased. With advancements in technology, medications, treatment options and practitioners’ skill, opportunity for survival has increased with improved monitoring capability.

A must for bedside reference, the Quick Guide for Cardiopulmonary Care is full of useful information for the critical care clinician.

Sepsis continues to be one of the leading causes of death in healthcare organizations throughout the world. In the face of overwhelming clinical evidence facilities struggle with understanding the level of commitment needed to recognize and effectively treat these complex patients. The development of a clear and cohesive understanding of the financial impact of the unrecognized sepsis patient is paramount to any facility looking to have an impact on this population. It has become clearly evident that both governmental, as well as, third party payers have developed this understanding and are quickly moving to require healthcare facilities to adopt measures to treat and measure these individuals. This talk will assist those involved in the care of sepsis in understanding the nuances of the clinical data and how to adapt it to meaningful practice chances.
