Free CEU for Nursing Interventions for Sepsis: Fluid Management
Nursing CEUs / Nursing Interventions
In this course, you will learn about fluid management in sepsis. Fluid resuscitation is a critical intervention that restores tissue perfusion. However, there is a great deal of variation in the type of fluid, rate of administration, and the total volume of fluid administered that goes into fluid resuscitation protocol in managing a patient with sepsis. By the end of this course, you will be able to explain how different endpoints can be used to measure fluid resuscitation effectiveness in sepsis, as well as the difference and pros/cons of crystalloid vs. colloid fluid resuscitation.
