Acute Care: Pre- and Post- Surgical Management

Pediatric surgery is an emotional and often overwhelming journey for children and their families. At every critical juncture, nurse practitioners serve as unwavering guides—offering advanced practice knowledge, skilled hands, and compassionate hearts to navigate each stage of the process for children who require surgical interventions.
  
This high-impact Pediatric Updates module, Acute Care: Pre- and Post- Surgical Management, takes a comprehensive look at the pre- and post-operative management and treatment of a broad spectrum of serious conditions, including cardiac and gastrointestinal disorders, congenital anomalies, liver and kidney transplants, and orthopedic trauma. It is specifically designed to deliver advanced clinical insights and practical, evidence-based strategies to empower you to effectively manage the most complex challenges resulting from pediatric surgical procedures.
  
Whether you're performing pre-anesthesia assessments, managing medications, addressing complications, or guiding families through recovery, this module will equip and empower you to deliver the highest standards of clinical excellence and compassionate presence.

For $85, earn 7.5 contact hours accredited by NAPNAP, of which 3.5 contains pharmacology (Rx) content, (0.75 related to psychopharmacology) (0.75 related to controlled substances).
