The course will provide education and up to date information on respiratory insufficiency, failure, and arrest as these are leading causes of procedural complications and unplanned admissions, and can create a significant cost burden to the healthcare system. This education session will review common risk factors that may lead to respiratory compromise and will explore potential strategies for reducing adverse events, such as continuous etCO2 monitoring.
This course provides one contact hour for nurses (California Board of Nursing), RTs (American Association of Respiratory Care), and CRNAs (American Association of Nurse Anesthetists, B Credit).
