Perioperative hypotension and non-invasive and minimally invasive advanced hemodynamic monitoring

September 24, 7 pm ET

View Flyer

Register

This comprehensive national webinar will review the latest evidence on hemodynamic monitoring and management during the perioperative period and the impact of hypotension, delving into the significance of managing blood pressure during surgery and its implications for patient outcomes. The session will explore advanced hemodynamic monitoring techniques, focusing on non-invasive and minimally invasive technologies including FloTrac, LiDCO, ClearSight and CNAP, and discuss the current evidence for their use in enhancing patient care. This webinar is an invaluable opportunity for healthcare professionals to stay informed about cutting edge practices in hemodynamic monitoring and improve patient safety and outcomes in high-risk surgical settings and more.

Learning objectives:

1. Review the current evidence of the impact of perioperative hypotension on clinical outcomes.
2. Describe the commonly used blood pressure monitoring devices and their limitations.
3. Discuss the non-invasive and minimally invasive advanced hemodynamic monitors, their potential uses and caveats.
4. Summarize the evidence and delineate a possible approach to choose the appropriate hemodynamic monitors taking into consideration the risks associated with the surgical procedure and the patient's medical condition.
