  • Vapocoolants and Needle Procedures – Just the Facts
    Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Includes a Live Web Event on 10/16/2024 at 1:00 PM (EDT)

    Pain management is a priority for health care workers. In recent years, the potential of unwanted side effects from systemic pain medications has been highlighted. Health care practitioners are exploring and using topical anesthetics as an alternative for pain relief in minor procedures. Vapocoolants are topical anesthetics that contain no medication and provide transient anesthesia through evaporation-induced skin cooling, which reduces pain. This comprehensive overview will explore the broad vapocoolant category, describe clinical study results when using skin refrigerants for needle procedures, and review the 2024 INS Standards of Practice regarding vapocoolants.

  • Extravasation Treatment: A Case Study Approach to Explore Options
    Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 09/18/2024

    The treatment of an extravasation, the inadvertent delivery of a vesicant into the tissue around a vascular access device (VAD), is a source of patient harm that is under-recognized, under-reported, and thus likely ineffectively treated. Unfortunately, recommendations for extravasation treatment (primarily reliant on case reports) can be difficult to leverage into clear clinical guidelines, increasing the risk of inadequate or delayed post-extravasation monitoring and treatment. This presentation will review vesicant properties and their mechanisms of tissue injury, peripheral vs central VAD extravasation risks with related prevention measures, and recommended extravasation treatment strategies and resources using a case study approach.

  • Oncology Infusion Therapy in Home and Ambulatory Sites of Service
    Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 08/21/2024

    The need for alternate sites of care for oncology patients is growing with the expansion of the biologic drug portfolio. Insurance companies are shifting patients from hospital sites of service to independent providers, and the home and ambulatory clinic settings are now an attractive option for patients seeking more convenient sites for their infusions. In this session, we will outline the framework necessary to design an oncology infusion program, the policies and procedures necessary, and components of training needed to meet the challenges that serving this population of patients brings.

  • Implanted Vascular Access Devices: Back to the Basics in Care and Management
    Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 06/11/2024

    Over 2 billion intravascular devices are inserted globally each year, and determining optimal maintenance protocols is challenging. Literature cites late complications of central venous access devices (CVAD) range from 7.2% to 32.1%. Implanted vascular access devices (IVADs) are quoted to have lower risk than other CVADs but are not risk-free. Despite risk, patients often retain their devices for extended periods. In this session, we will review the basics of care and management of IVADs and let evidence-based practice guide the way to minimizing potential complications.

  • Minimizing the Risk of Drug Diversion
    Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 05/08/2024

    Controlled substances diversion (CSD) is a risk for any organization that prescribes, stores, dispenses, or administers controlled substances. CSD can lead to patient safety issues, including inadequate patient pain relief, harm to the nurse, and a significant liability risk to the organization. The American Nurses Association estimates that 6% to 8% of nurses have a substance abuse problem that impacts their practice. Some contributing factors to the issue of CSD include the global pandemic, nurses with easy access to medications, and lack of intravenous product standardization. A multidisciplinary approach to reduce the risk of CSD should include drug diversion prevention, diversion program standards and policies, and monitoring and reporting procedures. Strategies to promote diversion prevention include dose sizes that eliminate waste and use of pre-filled syringes in ready-to-administer (RTA) form. RTA medications are recommended by The Joint Commission, the Institute for Safe Medication Practices (ISMP), the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists (ASHP), and the Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation (APSF). In this session, we will discuss the issue of CSD, contributing factors, prevention methods, and monitoring and reporting programs.

  • An Innovative Instructional Simulation Strategy for PIVC Insertion Training
    Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 04/10/2024

    Despite being one of the most common invasive medical devices, peripheral intravenous catheters (PIVC) fail at unacceptably high rates, with around 50% to 75% failing before treatment is complete. The development of nursing professionals’ expertise is essential in reducing failures and complications associated with PIVC use. Proper training is necessary to acquire professional expertise in strategies that ensure an accurate performance and minimize the risks inherent to the procedure. Even though PIVC insertions are a prevalent, technically complex, and invasive procedure, most health care practitioners receive little substantive PIVC education, training, or opportunities to practice skills to become competent. In addition, PIVC training can vary between professionals and curriculums. In some countries, technical professionals without higher education, such as licensed practical nurses (LPN), are part of the nursing team and are licensed to perform PIVC insertions. In this session, we will discuss an innovative instructional simulation strategy for PIVC insertion training used with LPNs to improve performance and reduce complications associated with the procedure.

  • Pop Fly: Good Catches Averting Potential Harm With the Use of Smart Infusion Pumps
    Contains 3 Component(s), Includes Credits Recorded On: 01/17/2024

    Smart infusion pumps have been around for over 20 years and represent one of the most valuable pieces of health care technology in place to promote patient safety. By allowing significant control over how intravenous medications are administered, errors can be prevented prior to them reaching the patient. A good catch is when smart infusion pump programming triggers an alert for a value that is considered unsafe and temporarily stops additional forward programming of the smart infusion pump. In this session, we will review examples of good catches, discuss how health care systems can quantify cost savings from severe harms averted, and explain how to champion smart pumps as a key tool to safely administer intravenous medications.
