Anesthesia in the Perioperative and Postoperative Settings

The perioperative nurse plays a primary role in the operative process. Knowledge of procedures, appropriate patient assessment, and care management guidelines will positively impact patient outcomes. Patients consider anesthesia to be a major risk of surgery and expect perioperative team members to be their advocates by caring for their pre-, intra-, and post-operative needs and providing safe and effective care. This course discusses anesthetics and adjuvant medications used in the clinical setting, anesthesia-related complications, and the nurse’s role in management of perioperative patients.

von Willebrand Disease: An Inherited Bleeding Disorder

Von Willebrand disease (vWD) is the most common inherited genetic bleeding disorder, yet it is not well known or understood among the public or healthcare providers. Von Willebrand factor (vWF) is a protein that is essential for platelet aggregation and clotting. A low vWF can lead to heavy or prolonged bleeding. This most commonly appears as complaints of menorrhagia (i.e., heavy menstrual bleeding), prolonged bleeding after minor injuries, or gum bleeding. The clinician can advocate for proper diagnosis and treatment, as well as prevent adverse events by being aware of the presenting signs and types of the disorder, recognizing that many patients are asymptomatic, and understanding when a hematology consultation is warranted.
