A check list is helpful for avoiding tunnel vision and ensuring that all aspects of patient care have been considered and tended to each and every day. This is particularly true for very sick or critically ill hospitalized patients.
In this Critical Care mashup, Dr. Elisa Mazzaferro provides case-based learning to highlight the 20 most important considerations for our hospitalized patients. She discusses the case of Bonita - a 3 year old Labrador Retriever that developed a dehiscence of her abdominal suture line 3 days after a routine spay.
