Fearless Analgesia
We know that applying a "standard RSI" to patients in shock can be dangerous: both compensated and frank shock require special handling. Managing pain, providing anxiolysis, or sedating patients is no exception. Clinicians will learn important insights to help them wield critical meds skillfully in hemodynamic compromise, obesity, and organ failure. This lecture provides clear, evidenced based insights to keep your patients safe AND comfortable.
