Overview

Target Audience

RN, CNS, NP


Course Description

This two-day course is designed to provide the critical-care healthcare provider with a review of AACN’s core curriculum. The instructor will lecture on anatomy, physiology, physical assessment and hemodynamics in a systems approach. Topics discussed include cardiac, respiratory, neurological, renal, endocrine, hematological, gastrointestinal, psychological, shock and the synergy model. This review is not an introduction but a comprehensive update for the professional already in practice at the critical-care or progressive care bedside and preparing for the CCRN Exam.

Key Learning Outcome

  • After completing the program, 80% of participants will report an increase in knowledge and confidence necessary to pass the certification exam.

Program Objective

This program prepares the learner to:

  • Discuss critical-care anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology of the body’s systems: hematology, cardiovascular, endocrine, gastrointestinal, neurology, renal, pulmonary, multisystem/shock and synergy.
  • Discuss significant assessments, diagnostic findings, clinical presentations and management strategies of critical-care patients.
  • Demonstrate the knowledge and confidence to successfully pass the CCRN Certification Exam.
  • Solve and evaluation critical-care exam questions.
  • Study identified knowledge gaps discovered during the review class prior to examination.
