• Accurately interpret cardiac rhythms
• Compare novel anticoagulant therapies for prevention of thromboembolism
• Drug titration: What is important to know?
• Post-catheterization complications: Be ready to intervene!
• Sharpen care of the patient with myocardial ischemia
• TIMI, HEART & ASCVD: What’s the difference?
• Improve management of your septic patient
• Master skills required for today’s telemetry/postacute cardiac nurse

Managing complex cardiac patients can be difficult for experienced nurses. Do you know the core measures frequently monitored on your unit? Are you confident in your ability to care for a patient with a device? Are you comfortable with your ability to wean oxygen? Can you use restrains on a patient? Do you hesitate on defibrillating an unstable patient? You will leave this training with improved rhythm interpretation skills, the ability to quickly recognize life-threatening dysrhythmias and confidence to manage your cardiac patients.

1. Compare and contrast sinus and atrial rhythms.
2. Distinguish differences between life-threatening arrhythmias.
3. Discriminate between indications for medications prescribed on the post-acute cardiac unit.
4. Assess the post-cardiac catheterization patient to identify potential complications.
5. Plan appropriate nursing care for the patient with myocardial ischemia.
6. Formulate a plan to decrease risk of pressure injuries.

A cardiovascular rhythm review.
