They are responsible for assessing patients, providing intraoperative and postoperative care, and monitoring recovery in the intensive care unit (ICU) or cardiovascular care unit (CCU).

Key Responsibilities :

Preoperative Care :

  • Conduct thorough preoperative assessments, including reviewing medical histories, performing physical exams, and documenting vital signs and lab results.
  • Ensure all pre-surgical instructions are followed, such as fasting, medications, and preoperative testing (e.g., ECG, blood work).
  • Educate patients and their families about the open heart surgery process, what to expect, and the recovery process.
  • Provide emotional support and reassurance to patients and families, addressing any concerns or anxieties regarding the procedure.
  • Intraoperative Assistance :

  • Assist in the operating room, preparing the patient and ensuring the sterile field is maintained during the procedure.
  • Monitor vital signs, including heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen saturation, and temperature, throughout the surgery.
  • Administer medications, including sedatives, analgesics, and IV fluids as directed by the surgical team.
  • Work closely with the surgical team to manage any complications that arise during surgery, such as blood loss, arrhythmias, or changes in vital signs.
  • Document all surgical interventions, medications, and patient responses in the medical record.
  • Postoperative Care and Monitoring :

  • Monitor patients closely after surgery in the ICU or CCU for signs of complications, including bleeding, infection, and cardiac irregularities.
  • Administer prescribed medications, such as pain management, anticoagulants, and antibiotics, to support recovery.
  • Assess and manage wounds, including surgical site care, dressing changes, and monitoring for signs of infection.
  • Monitor cardiac function and assist in managing arrhythmias or other heart-related complications.
  • Provide respiratory support if needed, such as administering oxygen, assisting with ventilator management, and promoting deep breathing exercises.
  • Patient Education and Rehabilitation :

  • Educate patients about their recovery process, including guidelines for activity, diet, wound care, and signs of complications (e.g., infection, chest pain, swelling).
  • Encourage and support early mobility to prevent complications such as blood clots and pneumonia.
  • Provide emotional support to patients and families throughout the recovery process, addressing concerns, managing stress, and promoting positive outcomes.
  • Work with the rehabilitation team to educate patients on lifestyle changes, including smoking cessation, diet, and exercise, to support heart health after surgery.
  • Collaboration with Multidisciplinary Team :

  • Collaborate with cardiologists, surgeons, anesthesiologists, respiratory therapists, and other healthcare providers to coordinate comprehensive care plans for patients.
  • Participate in daily rounds and case discussions to review patient progress and adjust treatment plans as needed.
  • Ensure clear and effective communication with family members, updating them on the patient's condition and progress.
  • Documentation and Reporting :

  • Document all patient assessments, interventions, and outcomes in the electronic medical record (EMR) to ensure accurate, up-to-date information.
  • Report any changes in the patient's condition, such as signs of infection, changes in vital signs, or complications, to the healthcare team.
  • Ensure all surgical and postoperative documentation is complete and complies with healthcare regulations and standards.
  • Emergency Response and Complication Management :

  • Respond rapidly to any emergency situations, such as cardiac arrest, arrhythmias, or respiratory distress, during the postoperative period.
  • Administer life-saving interventions as needed, such as CPR, defibrillation, or intubation.
  • Monitor and manage potential complications, such as bleeding, stroke, or organ dysfunction, in the recovery phase.
  • Quality Improvement and Continuing Education :

  • Participate in quality improvement initiatives and research projects focused on improving outcomes for patients undergoing open heart surgery.
  • Stay updated on the latest advancements in cardiac care, surgical techniques, and best practices through continuing education, seminars, and conferences.
  • Advocate for patient safety and care standards, ensuring compliance with hospital policies and guidelines.
