At SterileCare, we understand the relentless commitment to safeguarding Central Venous Access Devices (CVADs) against infections and occlusions. Through meticulous extraluminal care procedures and protocols, we strive to maintain the highest standards of patient safety. However, let's face the facts: despite our best efforts, research shows that 100% of CVADs become colonized within 24 hours of insertion. This statistic demands a critical question: Are we truly doing enough? That's why we continually advocate for a paradigm shift towards comprehensive intraluminal care. By addressing the challenges within the catheter itself, we aim to revolutionize catheter management and enhance patient outcomes. Join us in advancing catheter care beyond the extraluminal realm. Let's pioneer innovative solutions that prioritize intraluminal integrity and redefine the standard of care for CVADs. #CVAD #HealthCare #Science #Medicine

This week is Patient Blood Management Awareness Week, an initiative by the Society for the Advancement of Patient Blood Management, Inc. (SABM). PBM is an evidence-based, multidisciplinary approach aimed at optimizing patient outcomes by reducing or eliminating unnecessary blood transfusions and improving blood health management.   Bloodless medicine is a part of PBM, and is an important focus for our community. PBM is especially critical in anesthesia where precision in managing blood health is crucial. Our own Dr. Linda Shore-Lesserson serves as President of SABM. Her dedication to PBM in anesthesia has made a profound impact on patient safety and quality of care. We encourage you to check out sabm.org and learn more about the advancements in patient blood management.   Let’s continue to support PBM and advocate for practices that enhance patient outcomes and make a difference in healthcare! #PatientBloodManagement #PBMAwarenessWeek #PBMAW2024 #Anesthesia #BloodlessMedicine #NorthwellAnesthesia

💧 Understanding IV Fluids: Hydration in Healthcare Ever wonder what's in those bags hanging by hospital beds? Intravenous (IV) fluids play a crucial role in maintaining hydration and delivering essential nutrients and medications directly into the bloodstream. 💉💦 There are different types of IV fluids, including isotonic, hypotonic, and hypertonic solutions, each tailored to specific medical needs. From replenishing electrolytes to managing dehydration, IV fluids are lifesavers in healthcare settings. Next time you see an IV drip, remember the vital role it plays in keeping patients hydrated and healthy. 💪💙 Dr. Jyothi Jetti, Pharm-D #IVFluids #HealthcareHeroes #HydrationMatters #MedicalScience ##MedicalTreatment #HospitalCare #NursingLife #pharmd #drpharms #jj #FluidTherapy #PatientCare #HealthScience #EmergencyMedicine #IVTherapy #linkedinfollowers #HealthcareTechnology #MedicalInnovation
