SESSION 1 –
The Lungs in Detail
With Angelica F. Dizon, MD, BSN and MBA-HCM, RN
Have you ever wondered why?
Patients with respiratory arrest often feel anxious for as long as 8 hours before they begin to recover.
When your patient is having trouble breathing, pulse oximetry can be normal.
What does it mean to have abnormal sounds in your breath?
If you have difficulty explaining to your patients how a Pulmonary Embolis affects lung function or why some people with asthma can stop breathing, then you need to get back to basics with the help a mentor who can make it easy to understand.
Many of us learned anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology in school, where we were primarily focused on passing the class. We memorized, studied, but quickly forgot.
Understanding the fundamental concepts of physiology, pathophysiology, and pulmonary anatomy will allow you to quickly identify patient complications and respond more effectively.
THE LUNG REVEALED — Examine the structure and function of the components of the lungs, airways and endocrine controls that affect pulmonary function.
OXYGEN DELIVERY & CONSUMPTION — Find out how the lung controls acid/base balance and the mechanisms that protect the body from hypoxic injury.
COMMON PULMONARY CONDITIONS — Find out what is really going on during acute pulmonary edema, COPD, and pulmonary embolism.
LESS COMMON PUMONARY DISORDERS — Discover the pathophysiologic mechanisms behind less common pulmonary disorders such as ARDS, hospital-acquired pneumonia and pulmonary hypotension.
SESSION 2
The Kidneys in Detail
With Carla J. Moschella, MS. PA-C, RDN
Have you ever wondered:
What does serum osmolality translate into for your patient?
How to prevent electrolyte disorders
What happens when drugs and IV dyes affect renal function?
If you’re like many healthcare professionals, fluids, electrolytes, and renal function can seem intimidating. Concepts like osmolality can also be confusing. But, wait…now there’s hope!
In The Kidneys in Detail Carla J. Moschella, MS. PA-C, RDN, explains complex fluids and electrolytes in easy terms that you can understand. He also gives practical ways to apply the information at your bedside with your next patient.
If you are having trouble explaining to patients why potassium levels are low for the third consecutive day, or why certain drugs can cause renal dysfunction, you should get help from a mentor. They will be able to make it easy for them to understand the information.
THE KIDNEYS REVEALED — The structure and function of components of the mechanical and hormonal systems of the kidneys.
RENAL DYSFUNCTION — What happens to cause decreased renal function and why.
ELECTROLYTES and THE KIDNEYS — Find out why your patient’s electrolytes are out of range and what you can do about it.
KIDNEYS and FLUIDS: The BALANCING AACT — Discover how the kidneys act to maintain fluid balance and osmolality; and how to find problems before they occur.
SESSION 3
The Immune System Detail
With Angelica Dizon, MD, BSN and MBA-HCM, RN
If you could only master one concept in your career, it should have been the inflammatory response.
Do you care about patients with:
Cardiac disorders?
Are you suffering from respiratory disorders?
Gastrointestinal disorders?
Neurological disorders
Infection, cancer, and immunosuppression
Inflammation is responsible in many of the diseases we treat. It is the body’s primary response to healing and protection from injury. In You must be able to recognize the inflammatory response in order to provide exceptional care.
Although the inflammatory response can be complex, it can be broken down into three main events: 1) vasodilation; 2) capillarypermeability; and 3) clotting. These events are what lead to many conditions, such as septic shock (ARDS), atherosclerosis, and others. But, the lack of a response can be just as devastating — exposing the body to a myriad of deadly infections.
Learn how to manage patients with inflammation and those whose inflammatory response has been inhibited by learning the anatomy, pathophysiology, and physiology of inflammatory responses.
If you’ve had trouble with these concepts in the past, then this is the program for you! You will get the detail you need — explained at a level that you will fully understand.
THE IMMUNE SYSTEM REVEALED — Explore the inner workings of the immune system, like you’ve never heard it before!
INFLAMMATION: THE CENTER of ATTENTION — How the inflammatory response works and what you can do to assess and treat complications.
INFLAMMATION OUT of CONTROL — Sepsis, allergies, organ rejection, and anaphylactic reactions: the symptoms and how to treat the complications.
COMMON IMMUNE DISORDERS — Treat and Prevent Autoimmune disease, HIV, and antibiotic resistant bacteria.
