Description
After this session you’ll be able to:
As department decision makers, OR managers must understand the importance of ensuring staff and the surgical team are competent in correct patient positioning to assure post-surgical complications are minimized. Join Dan Allen as he examines the chronology of Trendelenburg positioning technology. Attendees will gain a better understanding of the physiological impact of extreme Trendelenburg and the unforeseen patient positioning injury risks that accompany robotic assisted surgery that do not exist with traditional MIS techniques.
- Describe the chronology of Trendelenburg positioning.
- Explain the physiological ramifications of extreme Trendelenburg positioning and understand the unforeseen patient positioning injury risks associated with robotic surgery.
- Compare and contrast Trendelenburg patient positioning requirements for conventional MIS and robotic surgery.
