TIPS FOR YOUR CARDIAC ANESTHESIA ROTATION [WEBINAR REPLAY] | EP36

This episode is a replay of a live webinar by cardiac CRNA, Alex Gorman, who gives an excellent presentation on Cardiac Anesthesia. He explores the essentials for managing complex heart cases in the OR. We walk through the entire process—from pre-op evaluations and cath report interpretation to hemodynamic management and weaning off bypass. Whether you're a CRNA, resident, or ICU nurse, you'll gain valuable insight into real-world decision-making, including drug selection, TEE basics, and how to collaborate effectively with perfusionists and surgeons. This episode is packed with tips to help you feel more prepared and confident in cardiac rotations, and we share actionable advice on soft skills that can make or break your clinical experience. Stick around until the end to learn the one mistake you should never make with protamine—and how it could be fatal if you do.
