What you'll learn
At the conclusion of this course, participants will be able to:
Review the beta-adrenergic physiology and rationale for utilizing β-blocker (βB) therapy in critical illness.
Evaluate available literature regarding βB therapy in critical illness.
Describe evidence-based βB use in presentations of critical illness including sepsis, severe burns, traumatic brain injury, and cardiac arrest.
Webinar description
Over the last several years, there has been increased interest in the role of beta blockers in the acute care setting. Traditionally, these medications have been viewed as outpatient medications for blood pressure, acute coronary syndrome, or heart failure. Further, they are viewed as potentially having adverse effects if a patient is hemodynamically unstable and hospitalized. However, newer literature in burns, sepsis, traumatic brain injury and other areas shows a unique role for this class of medications that warrants discussion and exploration. This live webinar seeks to build upon traditional knowledge of beta blockers by discussing new and emerging literature in novel disease states that may apply to any pharmacist or healthcare provider working in a hospital or acute care setting. The activity will review the literature in these disease states, discuss common dosing schema, identify current controversies and emerging literature, and review monitoring of this medication class.

I appreciate the convenience of the course being online and accessible through my phone and that it directly reports to CEBroker to support mandated education requirements.
I really loved this information. I was hospitalized last year for almost a month and I noticed multiple medical errors (not being hooked up to my IV multiple times, given wrong medication which caused my sodium to be very low, etc.) which lengthened my stay. I can now define those exact errors and better understand what happened to me. I hate that these medical errors are so common and I appreciate how well laid out your breakdown and categorization of them was.
