ISAVE That Podcast

Are there two standards?

Association for Vascular Access Season 8 Episode 3

See YouTube video -  https://youtu.be/-2UarFXcio0

Join Judy as she discusses vascular access practice with Dr. Jack LeDonne MD, VA-BC, Dr. Adam Friedlander MD, Dennis Woo RN, VA-BC

Our physician partners are the top of the food chain in medicine. We look up to them and respect their knowledge. Conversely, we scratch our heads at their practice in vascular access!

Why are they blindly poking groins? Why are they still suturing lines? Why are they still placing blind? What about those ugly IJ’s inserted high in the neck whose extension tubing is like a hair accessory?

Learning Objectives:

1.        Understand discrepancies in practice between Vascular Access Specialists and Physicians.

2.        Describe variations in training for central line insertion

3.        Summarize steps to improve multidisciplinary practice
