Examine the collection of data to include analysis of complex health care needs, health patterns, and the plan of care to determine clients in need of RRT notification (CO: EBO 1) 2. Discuss barriers to RRT activation and devise methods to overcome them in nursing practice (CO: EBO 4) 3. Demonstrate understanding of safe nursing practice as it relates to complex client needs requiring notification of RRT (CO: VBO 1; Essentials) 4. Utilize the SBAR format as an interprofessional communication tool in complex care situations (CO: EBO 1, 4; VBO 1) 5. Recall BLS guidelines and how to apply to notification of rapid response teams or advanced resuscitation teams (CO: EBO 4, VBO 1) Sequence of Events: BLS→ CAB Advance directives, living wills, DNR? Assess responsiveness Call for help/ AED/ Defibrillator Check for breathing & pulse Circulation: chest compressions proper hand position! Early defibrillation if indicated (use AED) Progresses to Advanced Cardiac Life support (ACLS)—will cover later in Unit III 5 Rapid Response Team Concept 1) Identification of clinical deterioration that triggers early notification of team: ISBAR Report to provider about a critical situation ICU nurse, respiratory therapist, nursing supervisor, hospitalist, pharmacists for example Identify: What is your name and position? I Where are you calling from? Situation: What is the situation you are calling about? Identify the client, age S Briefly state the problem, what is it, when it happened or started, Rapid intervention of personnel and equipment brought to the and how severe. 2) client Background: Pertinent background information related to the situation Diagnosis and date of admission B Code status Relevant medical history related to the situation Recent interventions done for the client primary RN never leaves the client’s bedside! Other clinical information if pertinent: medications, allergies, IV fluids, lab Assessment: What is the nurse’s assessment of the situation? Most recent vital signs A Level of consciousness/ behavior 3) Evaluation: data collection and analysis improves outcomes, Provide other relevant or focused assessment data What you think the problem is prevents complications, and promotes interdisciplinary Recommendation: What are nursing recommendation or what do you suggest? Recommendation that client be seen now, this is urgent need Transfer to higher level of care/ intensive care unit R Request order for: CXR, ABG, CBC, BMP, others? Consult for respiratory therapy, physical therapy, others? response. When would provider like to be notified if there is no improvement?
