Ultrasound Guided CVC Insertion Course – recorded live @ UCSD August 30th 2015 – Vascular Access – an evidence-based approach

These are the audio/video recordings from the USG-CVC Insertion Course – Compliance Within Practice didactic and clinical stations, initially recorded on August 30th, 2015 for the SANVAN (San Diego Vascular Access Network) meeting.

The original files have been saved and stored here for ongoing access to clinical education.

This program is for academic and non-academic institutions to improve their compliance within practice for ultrasound-guided CVC insertion practices and principles, using current evidence-based practices.

Vascular access in breast cancer survivors January 27, 2020
Due to increased survival, breast cancer survivors go on to develop other healthcare issues that may require vascular access. Therefore, long-held beliefs with regards to risk factors and preventative measures need to be challenged” Larocque and McDiarmid (2019). Abstract: Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. Breast cancer related lymphedema (BC […]

Insulin adsorption in ICU infusion sets January 27, 2020
Insulin adsorption has been observed in ICU delivery lines, and is especially problematic in the delivery of insulin within the neonatal ICU” Knopp et al (2019). Abstract: Insulin adsorption has been observed in ICU delivery lines, and is especially problematic in the delivery of insulin within the neonatal ICU. This paper presents a two state [...] The post […]

Forecasting hypotension during vasopressor infusion January 27, 2020
For optimal management of hypotension during continuous vasopressor infusion, this study investigated two forecasting models, logistic regression (LR) and auto-regressive (AR) models, to predict sustained hypotension episodes (SHEs) in the ICU, before the SHE occurred” Shin et al (2019). Abstract: For optimal management of hypotension during continuous vasop […]
