Joe Basha's PerfWeb #99 - Day 2 — Mastering Z-BUF in Hyperkalemia. My Near Misses — Perfusion The PerfWeb Podcast

    • Medicine

Our day begins with a focused exploration into the management of hyperkalemia following the release of aortic cross clamping, a critical phase during cardiac surgery where precision in fluid management can dictate patient outcomes. Led by J. Basha, CCP, a renowned expert in the field of perfusion, this session will dissect the efficacy of Zero-Balance Ultrafiltration (Z-BUF) in managing hyperkalemia, an often-challenging condition that can lead to severe cardiac complications if not managed with expertise and care.
Perfusion has become much safer than years past, however, it remains fraught with dangers. Joe discusses 4 cases that nearly ended in disaster and would likely have been career ending. Despite advancements in safety, the domain of perfusion continues to present significant challenges and risks. In this insightful webinar, Joe Basha will share personal experiences from four distinct scenarios that teetered on the brink of disaster. These narratives not only underscore the inherent dangers in perfusion but also highlight the crucial learnings and preventive strategies that safeguard against potential career-ending mistakes. This session promises to be an invaluable learning experience for perfusionists at any stage in their career, offering lessons in vigilance, preparedness, and the importance of learning from near misses.
