SUMMARY:"Patient Safety Update: Reducing Tubing Misconnections"
DESCRIPTION:Download a copy of this content. \nAccess the recording. \nHealthTrust presents...”Patient Safety Update: Reducing Tubing Misconnections” \nReducing occurrences of medical device tubing misconnections is an important patient safety issue gaining attention from various stakeholders across the healthcare continuum. Such misconnections happen when one type of medical device is mistakenly attached to another medical device that performs a different function. Inspired by continued reports of serious injuries and patient deaths associated with these misconnections\, the FDA recently issued a letter to enteral feeding tube manufacturers and distributors\, healthcare professionals and hospital purchasing departments recommending that hospitals and clinicians use enteral devices with connectors that meet the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) 80369-1 or ISO 80369-3 standard\, or that are otherwise designed to reduce the risk of misconnections. Presenters will provide an update on next steps in the device misconnections campaign and what the FDA’s strong recommendations mean for manufacturers of enteral feeding tubes. \nLearning Objectives for member attendees: \n\nDescribe the risks involved with medical device tubing misconnections\nDiscuss design changes that meet ISO standards to reduce the likelihood of errors\nExplain FDA recommendations for enteral device manufacturers\nRecommend an appropriate strategy leading to the eventual removal of legacy devices that have an increased risk for misconnection within one’s own facility or healthcare system\n\nPresenters: \n \nMark Antonino\, MS  |  Biologist & Lead Reviewer  |  Gastroenterology Branch in the Division of Reproductive\, Gastro-Renal & Urological Devices  |  U.S Food & Drug Administration (FDA) \n \nMike Cusack\, BS\, MBA | Executive Director  |  GEDSA \n \nNancy Preston\, RN BSN CRNI | Director of Strategic Sourcing of Clinical Products & Services | Trinity Health \nTarget Audience: Nursing and Supply Chain Professionals \nContinuing Education: Approved for Nursing and Supply Chain Professionals \nNote about CE credit:  \n\nIf you plan to obtain credit for a live session\, stay until the end of the presentation to receive the verification code you will need to obtain the continuing education credit.\nCE credit is individual. No group credit is available.\nEach person must register for a webinar and attend the webinar in its entirety in order to receive an email after the event with instructions on how to apply for continuing education credit.\nAttendees should not share the code or forward the email to others who did not actually attend the program.

SUMMARY:“Designing Reliable Practices for IV Push Medication Use: A Focus on Safe Administration”
DESCRIPTION:Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP)* presents…“Designing Reliable Practices for IV Push Medication Use: A Focus on Safe Administration” \nIntravenous (IV) medication are commonly used in both inpatient and outpatient environments. National survey results\, nursing literature\, and direct observation of nursing practice suggest significant variation in unit-based preparation of IV push medications and unsafe injection practices. While national emphasis has been placed on the improvement of IV infusion safety\, it is equally important to assist nurses in the identification and management of the risks associated with preparation\, management and administration of IV push medications. \nHear from nursing faculty as they describe these often-unrecognized risks\, relate national survey results associated with IV push medication use\, and discuss the current recommendations from the ISMP Safe Practice Guidelines for Adult IV Push Medications. The faculty will also describe a gap analysis tool being used nationally to assess and improve the safety of current IV push practices. \nLearning Objectives  |  Following completion of this activity\, participants will be able to: \n\nRecognize unsafe practices and at-risk behaviors associated with the preparation of IV push medications to adults\nIdentify unsafe practices and at-risk behaviors associated with the administration of IV push medications to adults\nDiscuss best practices and related error reduction strategies identified in ISMP’s Safe Practice Guidelines for Adult IV Push Medications\nEmploy the proposed gap analysis tool to assess current organizational practice for IV push medication use\, and define steps toward safer care\n\nSpeakers: \n \nMichelle Mandrack\, MSN\, RN  |  Director of Consulting Services  |  ISMP \n \nSusan Paparella\, MSN\, RN  |  Vice President  |  ISMP \nTarget Audience: \n\nQuality and Risk Management Leaders\nNursing and Pharmacy Managers and Administrators\nMedication Safety and Patient Safety Officers\nNurses\nPharmacists\nClinical Educators\n\nQuestions should be directed to jogle@ismp.org \nNo continuing education credits are available for this activity. \nThis activity is supported by Baxter. \n* NOTE: This is a supplier and industry resource-sponsored webinar.

SUMMARY:“What Top Performing Hospitals Do to Improve Cardiac Arrest Survival”
DESCRIPTION:Saxe Healthcare Communications* presents…“What Top Performing Hospitals Do to Improve Cardiac Arrest Survival” \nCurrently\, the nationwide survival rate for an in-patient cardiac arrest event is only 25 percent. Opportunities exist for hospitals to improve the cardiac arrest team’s performance and survival rate based on the 2018 American Heart Association (AHA) published “Get with the Guidelines” (GWTG) Cardiac Resuscitation Registry. The guidelines\, derived from resuscitation data from hospitals nationwide\, examined protocols and processes the top\, middle\, and bottom quartile hospitals have in place for cardiac arrest response. In-depth interviews were conducted at the facilities with physicians\, nurses\, administration and other support staff.  Not surprising\, top performing hospitals had major commonalities. This webinar will discuss what contributes to a top performing hospital resuscitation rate and how it can be implemented in other facilities. \nLearning Objectives  | Upon completion of this activity\, the participant will be able to: \n\nDiscuss the value of performing mock codes\nDiscuss the importance of delineating team roles\nDiscuss alternative to resuscitation training\n\nPresenter: \n \nNicole Kupchik\, MN\, RN\, CCNS\, CCRN\, PCCN\, CMC  |  Nicole Kupchik Consulting\, Inc. \nContinuing Education  |  This program has been approved for 1.0 contact hours for Nurses & Respiratory Therapists \n\nContinuing Respiratory Care Education (CRCE) credit by the American Association of Respiratory Care\, 9425 N.

SUMMARY:"Thromboembolism in Pregnancy"
DESCRIPTION:Download a copy of this content. \nAccess the recording. \nHealthTrust presents…”Thromboembolism in Pregnancy” (Part 4 in the Maternal Morbidity & Mortality 4-part series) \nMaternal mortality has increased precipitously in the United States over the past 15 years. Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a leading cause of death during pregnancy\, accounting for approximately 10 percent of all maternal mortality. Timely diagnosis and treatment can prevent many of these tragedies. Similarly\, venous thromboembolism prophylaxis during pregnancy and the peripartum period can prevent a significant amount of these potentially catastrophic events. In this session\, the presenter will describe significant risk factors as well as recommendations for diagnosis\, management\, prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism. A tailored\, multi-disciplinary approach including contributions from pharmacists\, nurses and lab clinicians is essential for successful outcomes in the treatment of thromboembolism in pregnancy. \nLearning Objectives  |  At the end of this session\, participants should be able to: \n\nDescribe the risk factors of thromboembolism in pregnancy\nExplain why pregnancy is a thrombogenic state\nRecall why peripartum venous thrombo prophylaxis can help prevent maternal deaths\nIdentify the benefits of utilizing an evidence-based care\, team approach to aid patients with venous thromboembolism (VTE)\n\nPresenter: \n \nFrank R.
