Salina Regional Health Center saved $90,000 by implementing a lean inventory management process for their robotics service line. You’ll hear best practices and key lessons learned from their success.

This webinar focuses on transforming the synergy between OR and CSP, creating a more cohesive and efficient healthcare environment. Walk away with strategies to help with integrating efficient workflows, improving communication, managing equipment in your OR, and more.

Review the process of normal wound healing, as well as the consequences of delayed healing, and the techniques and products used to promote successful healing. The pathogenesis and consequences of adhesion formation are also explained in this course, followed by a discussion of the methods used to prevent adhesions.

This program reviews best practices for infection prevention, discusses patient risk stratification, and examines the impact of ciNPT in minimizing Surgical Site Complications in an ASC setting.

This continuing education activity provides a review of the key considerations for the appropriate selection and use of surgical gowns as an infection prevention measure for both patients and the surgical team. Standards and guidelines pertaining to the selection and use of surgical gowns published by various federal agencies and professional organizations are covered.

This educational activity will clarify US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) requirements for preoperative skin preparation drug products and discuss recent FDA Safety Communications. The differences between sterile and nonsterile antiseptic solutions will be described as well as issues related to sterilizing antiseptic solutions.

OR integration (ORI) systems are designed to simplify and streamline the OR by consolidating data, access to video, and controls for all devices through a central console, allowing perioperative personnel to perform many tasks efficiently, without needing to move around the OR, and while ensuring optimum patient safety.

This series is designed for healthcare professionals who desire to complement existing ultrasound skills with focused assessment for the patient presenting with venous insufficiency symptomatology.

This education program presents the background, incidence, costs, and prevention strategies that can be leveraged for preventing CLABSI in clinical care settings. Additionally, it will give learners background knowledge of central line use and provide awareness of central line infection risks.

This continuing education reviews common surgical positioning injuries, high-risk surgical positions, and how team collaboration and communication can help prevent patient harm. Strategies, techniques, and evidence-based guidelines for steep deep Trendelenburg, prone, beach chair, and lateral positions are covered.

This educational program will explore how damage to the skin barrier can lead to alterations in the skin microbiome, contributing to conditions such as incontinence-associated dermatitis (IAD).

This learning activity discusses alternative options for indwelling catheters that can reduce a patient’s risk for developing catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI), a hospital-acquired infection that increases with duration of use of an indwelling catheter and costs the United States healthcare system millions every year.

This education activity will enhance the learners’ knowledge and awareness of safe practices for handling fluid waste in the OR through discussion of protective measures such as personal protective equipment and the safe use of solidifiers to prepare fluid medical waste for safe disposal.

This educational activity will review the essential concepts and role of perioperative personnel in IUSS as it applies to surgical instruments. Industry leading standards and guidelines will be discussed and key practices for adherence to evidence-based practices will be explained.

In the current era of antibiotic stewardship, with the prevalence of bacterial resistance to multiple antibiotic agents, there has been an interest in using perioperative antiseptics to reduce microbial contamination in the surgical site before closure and possibly reduce the need for antibiotic agents. This program is intended to better understand the proper implications of the different types of wound irrigations in relation to SSIs, cost, and efficiency.

Early mobilization is a key component for optimizing patient outcomes in the ICU. A standardized progressive mobility protocol provides an outline to develop and implement evidence-based interventions that will improve patient mobilization safely and effectively. Phases of mobilization described in this eLearning include goals and interventions to consider for safely progressing mobilization of the patient.

The advantages of using an online system for direct access to valuable information about a procedure pack program will be discussed. The five key functions of an online pack management system will be outlined. Best practices for standardization of procedural supplies across an integrated delivery network or individual hospital will be described.

These educational videos serve as a comprehensive guide, aiming to instruct learners in the precise identification and assessment of critical veins within the lower extremities through ultrasound techniques. The focus encompasses locating not only the distal great saphenous vein and the posterior accessory saphenous vein but also intricately mapping perforator veins and other vital vascular pathways.

This education activity will describe the criteria defined by the National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) for classifying a drug as hazardous and the types of health risks that healthcare works could experience relate to exposure. How and when an exposure to hazardous drugs can occur and the nursing implications for reducing exposures to hazardous drugs will also be discussed.
