The Clinical Education Center has new clinical content and nursing application.
Please prepare for the simulation scenarios as you would for a clinical day. Read through the material, look up pathophysiology, and medications regarding your patient.
Be prepared to provide knowledgeable, effective, and safe patient care in each of the simulation scenarios today.
To prepare for the Complex Care simulation experience, please:
Review the “Get with the Guidelines” PowerPoint (provided) and prepare a discharge teaching plan (what are the key items that the patient will need to know prior to going home) for Mr. Pierce utilizing the patient data provided in this workbook.
Read before the experience:

Activity #1 Non-invasive and Invasive Mechanical Ventilation and Oxygenation.
There will be a guest speaker, Jerome Piccoli, RRT, who will review oxygenation and introduce advanced modes of oxygenation such as CPAP and BiPap. Your role as a student nurse: Review your lecture notes regarding oxygenation as well as mechanical ventilation, both non-invasive and invasive. Procedures: Review Lewis Textbook (Medical-Surgical Nursing), Chapter 66, pp.1703-1713.
Activity #2
EKG Rhythm Interpretation and Review Your role as a student nurse: In small groups, interact with team members and actively participate in learning activities regarding rhythm interpretation. You will be provided with EKG rhythm strips. Answer the questions below.
1. What other assessment data would be helpful for you at this time, as it relates to your patient? 2. What are your priorities at this time? What nursing interventions you would like to implement? 3. What medications you can anticipate preparing for your patient, or potentially obtaining an order for? 4. Create an SBAR Report about your patient.
Activity #3 Acute Coronary Syndromes
Your role as a student nurse: Actively participate in assessment and nursing care for a patient experiencing a Acute Coronary Syndrome event “MONA” is the common acronym used for initial interventions and treatment of Acute coronary Syndromes.

Simulation
Your role as a student nurse:
Be familiar with the patient’s medical orders, MAR, and EMS (hard copy) report
The instructor will give you a minute to pre-brief and review the scenario’s objectives
Be prepared to work for 15 minutes in groups of 3 to complete objectives for each scenario
Three students will actively participate in simulation and 3 students will actively observe
All 6 students will actively participate for 15 minutes with an instructor guided debrief Guiding points:
3 active simulation participants should divide into nursing roles to meet the patient’s needs and scenario objectives
You are working with an interdisciplinary team and may consult by phone a Physician, Provider, Charge Nurse, CNA, Pharmacist, Case Manager, Respiratory Therapist, Social Worker, Chaplin, Physical Therapist and others as indicated
Role recommendations: o Student 1: Assessment/VS nurse: Role to complete basic assessment, vital signs and
communicate findings with team members o Student 2: Interventions/Medication administration nurse: Role to implement nursing
interventions to include medication administration o Student 3: Intervention/Primary nurse: Role as leader, situational awareness, communication
with provider and to implement nursing interventions
3 active observers should focus on observing simulation and be able to highlight successes and deficits in patient assessment, nursing interventions, and safety.
Complex Care Day NURS 4617 1 CEC/Sim Workbook 4
General Patient Medical Information for All Scenarios Today Primary Medical Diagnosis: Anterolateral MI
History of Present Illness: Mr. Martin Pierce is a 62 year-old patient
Situation: Mr. Martin Pierce is a 62 year-old patient brought in by ambulance for acute onset chest pain at 0530.
His wife called 911 when Mr. Pierce began complaining of tingling in his left arm. Additionally, he was clutching his
chest with his fist, and she became concerned. The 911 operator advised her to have him chew a regular strength
Aspirin; she stated she did not have any in the home. Once in the ambulance, EKG changes were noted on the
monitor, so the Paramedics gave him the Aspirin to chew. Paramedics contacted the Emergency Department (ED)
to notify them that Mr. Pierce was having an MI, most likely anterior-lateral.
Background: History of Hypertension (HTN), Nicotine use/abuse.
Allergy: Iodine
Medication(s): Hydralazine 25 mg PO twice daily
Assessment:
Neuro: Alert & Oriented, no neuro deficits. Respiratory: lungs clear, on 2 liters n/c sats about 90%
Cardiac: Chest pain treated on scene with Nitroglycerin 0.4 mg with result of pain dropping to 4/10 for 7/10. Rhythm remains SR with ST elevation. Pulses 2+/2+ bilaterally upper and lower extremities. Capillary refill <3 seconds.
GI: Abdomen rounded, soft. Bowel sounds active in all quads to auscultation. Non-tender to palpation.
GU: He has not voided at this point in time.
Msk: Gait steady, smooth movement noted. No crepitation, pain noted on palpation of all joints. Muscle strength 5/5 upper and lower extremities.
For access, he has an IV in his right antecubital space. Both lines are saline locked at this time.
Recommendations: See Simulation Scenarios Below
Scenario #1 New Admission
Sim room 3
Recommendations: Admit to the ED by verifying orders as well as implementing them, and educating the patient on the plan of care. As a team please admit this patient to your clinical area and provide any nursing care he may need. Your role as a student nurse:
A basic assessment including any needed focused assessments. Please include a set of vital signs.
Provide patient education to hospital environment, safety issues and overall plan of care.
Verify admission orders, verify MAR, and IV fluids
Also provide any nursing care for patient and communication to provider as needed.
In preparation for patient transfer to the Cath Lab, prepare and provide report to Cath Lab RN.
