What will I learn?
This course provides hands-on training in cardiopulmonary bypass physiology, circuit setup, anticoagulation protocols, and monitoring with TEG/ROTEM and ACT. Participants will master priming techniques, blood conservation methods, perfusion flow rates, gas exchange, temperature regulation, systematic troubleshooting, safe weaning procedures, reperfusion strategies, and post-bypass care to enhance patient safety and surgical results in the theatre.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Master CPB flows, pressures, and gas mixtures for effective organ perfusion and safety.
- Implement priming and blood conservation strategies to minimise dilution and reduce transfusions.
- Quickly resolve bypass issues like poor venous return, air emboli, and elevated line pressures.
- Perform safe weaning, rewarming, and reperfusion using clear checklists and protocols.
- Utilise ACT and TEG/ROTEM tests to manage heparin dosing, protamine reversal, and bleeding control.
