Anticoagulation:
Teetering on the Bleeding Edge
1-hour webinar
The Heparin overdose of actor Dennis Quaid’s newborn
twins drew attention to the dangers of anticoagulants:
Heparin, Coumadin, Lovenox, and others. These drugs
have a very narrow window of safety. Even in the best
of circumstances, when everyone does everything right,
these drugs can lead to significant toxicity and bleeding,
permanent injury, paralysis, blindness, and death. Safe
use requires understanding how they work (mechanism
of interaction, onset and duration of action), using
antidotes, and recognizing and avoiding drug interactions.....

A uniquely qualified presenter, Dr. Joe Citron is both
an ophthalmologist and an attorney. He explains the
mystery of how we see and what goes wrong when the visual

have long been the province of a few specially trained
medical people. No more! He’ll use common English
and a minimum of medical terms to explain how people
see. He’ll help you understand the connections
between the eyes and the brain as well as the methods
used for testing these areas. What’s the eye case
worth? Dr. Citron will help you determine the value
of eye injuries. |

Spinal
Epidural Hematoma: When Hours Count
1-hour webinar
An undiagnosed epidural hematoma may result in devastating
permanent injuries - paralysis and incontinence. The
risks are increasing as more surgeries and procedures,
including pain management with epidural catheters, are
being performed and have the potential for the development
of epidural hematomas. Liability may fall on the shoulders
of the nurses and physicians associated with a failure
to diagnose or a delay in diagnosis of the hematoma.
How does this dreaded complication happen? Two experienced
legal nurse consultants explain the anatomy, risk factors,
and the standards of medical and nursing care related
to spinal procedures and epidural catheters. |
