Optmizing Transports of Complex Patients with Impella
Impella devices can be game-changers for cardiogenic shock, and members of the care team who manage these patients during transport require specific training and skills to optimize patient outcomes. Today, host Shane Turner is joined by Ryan Harmon to take an inside look at the systematic approach one clinician uses to troubleshoot issues and optimize these advanced therapies. Ryan Harmon is a clinical care coordinator in the emergency room with extensive experience as both a nurse and a paramedic.
Harmon emphasizes the need for a systematic approach to troubleshooting issues, such as preload, afterload, and positioning, and the importance of managing medications to avoid complications. You’ll also learn the value of having a knowledgeable partner and being prepared for potential challenges during transports.
