7th Annual Rutgers Critical Care Symposium 2024

Friday, March 15, 2024, 7:00 AM - 3:40 PM, Ernest Mario School of Pharmacy, Room 131, Piscataway, NJ

The Rutgers Critical Care Symposium serves multiple purposes, aiming to create a collaborative environment among healthcare professionals specializing in critical care. Critical care practitioners encounter various disease states and related pharmacotherapies in their daily practice. However, staying up to date with research and evolving guidelines that impact patient care can be challenging. This symposium provides a platform for knowledge exchange where cutting-edge research, advancements, and best practices are shared to enhance patient care. Additionally, the platform hopes to facilitate networking and interdisciplinary collaboration among healthcare professionals. The symposium will cover several important topics, including the latest updates on managing advanced cardiogenic shock, alternative dosing strategies for thrombolytics for managing patients with pulmonary embolism (PE), methods for preventing and managing iatrogenic withdrawal syndromes in the ICU, a panel discussion on provider-to-patient ratios across different professions and controversies surrounding artificial intelligence in critical illness and its impact on patient care.

1. Discuss preventative and management strategies for iatrogenic withdrawal syndromes in the ICU.
2. Review the evolving dosing strategies of thrombolytics for the management of pulmonary embolism (PE).
3. Develop evidence-based pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment plans for an advanced cardiogenic shock.
4. Summarize the current challenges to implementing opitimal provider to patient ratios for ICU patients.
5. Explain potential applications of artificial intelligence in critical illness and its impact on patient care.
6. Employ evidence-based therapies for managing pulmonary arterial hypertension in the ICU.
