Guidelines for blood conservation in cardiac surgery are well established. Translating them into orders at the bedside is where many programs stall.The ERAS Cardiac Patient Blood Management Turnkey Order Set converts existing guideline and consensus recommendations into sample order sets ready for immediate bedside application.Developed from STS/SCA/AmSECT/SABM, EACTS/EACTA, ASA, and POQI-8/ERAS Cardiac recommendations.Access to the ERAS Cardiac Virtual Education Center is free. Create an account to download the full Turnkey Order Set PDF and share it with your team.

ERAS Cardiac Society advisory board member Omar Mejia, MD, PhD, recently presented at the São Paulo Cardiac Summit at CESIN-InCor on how quality improvement research is transforming cardiac surgery.His talk covered prehabilitation, enhanced recovery after surgery, and minimally invasive cardiac surgery, framed around what has changed in the field since the earliest days of cardiac surgery.The summit was an academic event promoted for the first time by two of the largest cardiovascular surgery centers in Brazil, with the aim of disseminating the most transformative advances in cardiovascular surgery. Alongside Professor Fabio Jatene of InCor and Mario Issa of Dante Pazzanese, the program included Professor Torsten Doenst, Hristo Kirov, and Tulio Caldonazo of the University of Jena in Germany, Maurilio O. Deininger of UNIMED, João Pedro Passos Dutra, Sergio Lima de Almeida of SOS Cardio Florianópolis, and Dr.Paulo Cesar Santos of Uberlândia Medical Center.Quality improvement research is a large part of why cardiac surgery looks so different today. We are grateful to all who carry that work forward around the world.#ERASCardiac #CardiacSurgery #EnhancedRecovery #QualityImprovement

September is Atrial Fibrillation Awareness Month. Postoperative atrial fibrillation remains one of the most common complications after cardiac surgery, and guidance on preventing and treating it now spans four major societies. Consolidating that into one set of orders closes the gap.The ERAS Cardiac Postoperative Atrial Fibrillation Turnkey Order Set translates existing guideline and consensus recommendations into a sample order set covering screening through anticoagulation.Developed from ACC/AHA/HRS, ESC/EACTS, SCA/EACTA, and Canadian Cardiovascular Society and Canadian Heart Rhythm Society recommendations.Access to the ERAS Cardiac Virtual Education Center is free.

About 40% of patients treated for endocarditis related to IV drug use will have a second episode. If injection use resumes in that first year, the risk of death or new infection is 10 times higher.Monday’s ERAS Cardiac Monthly Multidisciplinary Meeting featured Gail Markowski, DNP, ANP-BC, ACNPC-AG, CCRN, FAHA, on infective endocarditis, a disease where clearing the infection is often only the first problem.From the session:- Vegetation size drives surgical timing. Greater than 10 mm significantly raises embolic risk, and greater than 15 mm warrants surgery even without symptoms- Staph aureus vegetations can grow beyond 10 mm in days and are friable, making them far more likely to shed- Cerebral involvement exceeds 60% when silent ischemia is counted, and anticoagulation solely for stroke prevention is not recommended- Treating the underlying addiction during the admission significantly reduces patients leaving against medical advice“We’re not trained to really reach these patients and give them what they need.” Gail MarkowskiRecording now available, link in bio.#ERASCardiac #CardiacSurgery #InfectiveEndocarditis #EnhancedRecovery PerioperativeCare
