About The Position

The Registered Nurse (RN) in the Cardiovascular Operating Room (CVOR) provides specialized nursing care to patients undergoing cardiovascular surgeries. The RN works closely with the surgical team, including cardiothoracic surgeons, anesthesiologists, surgical technologists, and other healthcare professionals, to ensure safe, effective, and compassionate care before, during, and after cardiac procedures. This role requires expertise in cardiovascular anatomy, surgical interventions, and high-acuity care in the operating room setting.

Key Responsibilities :

Preoperative Patient Preparation :

  • Assess patients prior to surgery by reviewing medical histories, allergies, and current medications.
  • Prepare patients physically and emotionally for surgery, explaining procedures and answering questions.
  • Ensure all preoperative orders are completed, including labs, imaging, and medications, as prescribed by the surgical team.
  • Verify patient identity, surgical site, and procedure using a surgical checklist to ensure patient safety.
  • Assist with positioning patients on the operating table to ensure optimal access and comfort during the procedure.

Intraoperative Nursing Care :

  • Assist with the setup of the sterile field and ensure all surgical instruments and equipment are ready for use.
  • Monitor the patient’s vital signs, including heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen levels, and blood gases during surgery.
  • Administer medications (e.g., anesthetics, analgesics) and fluids as directed by the anesthesiologist or surgeon.
  • Assist the surgical team during complex cardiovascular procedures, such as coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), valve repair / replacement, or other heart surgeries.
  • Ensure the maintenance of a sterile environment, adhering to infection control practices and using sterile techniques during the procedure.
  • Respond promptly to any changes in the patient’s condition, including complications such as arrhythmias or bleeding.
  • Monitoring and Documentation :

  • Document patient status, interventions, and changes in condition in the electronic health record (EHR) according to hospital policies.
  • Record intraoperative events, including medications, blood products, and surgical team interventions.
  • Monitor and document patient responses to anesthesia, medications, and surgical interventions, and report any concerns to the surgical team.
  • Postoperative Care :

  • Assist with the transfer of the patient from the operating room to the recovery unit or intensive care unit (ICU), ensuring stable vitals and ongoing monitoring.
  • Monitor the patient for signs of complications post-surgery, such as bleeding, infection, or arrhythmias, and take immediate action if needed.
  • Provide postoperative education to patients and families, including information on recovery, wound care, and activity restrictions.
  • Administer pain management and other medications as prescribed to promote comfort and recovery.
  • Collaboration and Communication :

  • Communicate effectively with the surgical team, including surgeons, anesthesiologists, and surgical technologists, to ensure coordinated care.
  • Collaborate with the preoperative and postoperative care teams to ensure continuity of care and address any patient concerns.
  • Participate in surgical briefings and debriefings to discuss patient care, procedure outcomes, and any improvements needed for future surgeries.
  • Emergency Response and Crisis Management :

  • Be prepared to manage critical situations, such as life-threatening arrhythmias, cardiac arrest, or excessive bleeding, during surgery.
  • Use advanced cardiovascular life support (ACLS) protocols and other emergency measures to stabilize patients when needed.
  • Work collaboratively with the surgical and anesthesia teams to handle unexpected complications quickly and efficiently.
  • Sterilization and Equipment Maintenance :

  • Ensure all cardiovascular surgical instruments and equipment are sterilized, functioning, and properly maintained.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve equipment malfunctions quickly to minimize delays in surgery.
  • Ensure compliance with hospital policies and industry standards for infection control, including maintaining sterile technique and using proper PPE.
  • Patient Advocacy and Support :

  • Advocate for patient safety and comfort before, during, and after surgery, ensuring the patient’s well-being is the top priority.
  • Provide emotional support to patients and families, answering questions and offering reassurance about the surgery process and expected outcomes.
  • Professional Development :

  • Stay current with the latest research, techniques, and best practices in cardiovascular nursing and surgery.
  • Participate in continuing education opportunities, including certifications and training specific to cardiovascular care (e.g., CNOR, CCRN, or Cardiac Surgery Nurse certification).
  • Collaborate with colleagues to enhance the CVOR department’s practices and improve patient outcomes.
