Post-operative complications can be fatal if not recognized and treated rapidly. Complications can lead to extended hospital stays, increased cost, and diminished quality of life. If you care for patients who have received sedation, anesthesia and analgesia in the operative, interventional or diagnostic setting, this seminar is for you. Utilizing case studies and the latest evidence-based practice guidelines, Michael Greco, DNP, CRNA, CPAN, CAPA, will sharpen your understanding of the factors associated with post-operative risk.

Many post-operative complications, including potentially-fatal malignant hyperthermia, can occur in the immediate post-operative period. While other potential complications may present a little later into the follow-up care provided. Plan on attending this seminar and learn the many components needed to adequately evaluate patients following surgery, including: current (sometimes subtle) assessment findings that could flag something more significant, increased patient safety considerations, and strategies to prevent crisis situations from even happening.


  1. Develop response plans for the most likely respiratory and cardiovascular emergencies to occur post-operatively.
  2. Communicate the regulatory issues and standards driving changes in post-anesthesia practice today.
  3. Assess strategies to identify concerns early on in the patient following surgery.
  4. Evaluate the key elements involved in related malpractice cases.
  5. Appraise how the medications used during surgical cases can present challenges afterwards when the patients admit to the floor.
  6. Formulate effective documentation samples for emergent post-op patient cases.
  7. Analyze why certain populations pose unique challenges post-operatively to be able to anticipate needs.
  8. Plan for emergent interventions for patients with known or unknown sleep apnea.
