The importance of intraoperative hypotension | AANA 2024

Recorded at the recent American Association of Nurse Anesthesiology meeting this piece focuses upon the importance of addressing intraoperative hypotension (IOH) and its broader implications for patient outcomes, such as surgical site infections (SSI), postoperative cognitive dysfunction, and other complications. We also discuss the need for continuous education and the use of goal-directed therapy (GDT) to improve patient care.

Presented by Desiree Chappell and Monty Mythen with their guest Amy Yerdon, DNP, CRNA, Assistant Professor of Nursing, Nursing Acute, Chronic & Continuing Care, University of Alabama, Birmingham.
