8 in 8 Series: Optimizing Therapy Postoperatively After CABG

For patients to receive the maximal benefit after CABG and reduce the risk of major adverse events, adherence to post-discharge medications is essential. In this episode of the 8 in 8 Series, the presenters examine the data for post-op medication prescribing guidelines, including aspirin, statins, beta blockers, and more.

The Changing Face of Pretreatment Nodal Staging for Patients with Lung Cancer

Procedures to evaluate lymph nodes before lung cancer therapy, including endobronchial guided nodal aspiration and mediastinoscopy, can help diagnose and stage the patient effectively. Research findings demonstrate, however, that these procedures are underutilized overall or employed in a highly variable fashion. In this STS webinar, an expert panel of pulmonologists and thoracic surgeons discusses the changing role of pretreatment nodal staging to include diagnosis, staging, and acquisition of sufficient tissue for biomarker testing.

8 in 8 Series: Hypoxemia During Veno-Venous ECMO

Hypoxemia during veno-venous (VV) extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) mandates recognition and therapeutic management.  This STS 8 in 8 video identifies the basis of hypoxemia during VV-ECMO support, such as cannula recirculation and shunted blood. Viewers will also learn remediation management strategies.

Video
8 in 8 Series: Thromboelastogram in the ICU

Thromboelastogram (TEG) is a point of care test that helps tailor the resuscitation of cardiac patients. It is a valuable way to measure where a patient is on the hemostasis continuum from thrombosis to bleeding. TEG provides important information on the rate, strength, and stability of a blood clot. This video provides an overview of TEG, platelet mapping, a case study, and how to decide what products to transfuse.
