Today we’re going ‘back to basics’ with Austin Provence, a cardiothoracic nurse who brings a decade of experience in transporting patients with Impella devices and the importance of seamless teamwork. With over a decade of experience, Austin highlights two critical scenarios: stable patients needing higher care and critically ill patients requiring immediate interventions. He underscores the importance of mastering proper Impella placement and management, noting that a significant portion of these patients may present additional health challenges.
Austin shares practical tips on maintaining the correct angle to prevent bleeding, managing sedation, and ensuring clear communication between hospital and transport teams. This episode is packed with best practices and strategies to enhance the competency and confidence of transport clinicians in handling complex cardiac cases.
