- Run AKI, renal replacement therapy and acid–base interpretation with confidence
- Prescribe antibiotics, sedation and analgesia safely in the ICU
- Prepare for the ABIM critical care certification or recertification exam
Inside the course
Shock, the lungs and the heart
Sepsis, hemodynamic monitoring, hemorrhagic and cardiogenic shock; ARDS, mechanical ventilation from basics to the ABCDEF bundle, NIV and high-flow oxygen; then ACS, ICU arrhythmias, cardiac devices, post-arrest care and pulmonary embolism with Samuel Goldhaber.
