SCCM Resource Library-June Journal Club: Spotlight on Pharmacy (2023)

Video Transcription

Video Summary

Today's Journal Club Spotlight on Pharmacy webcast featured three presentations. The first presentation, given by Kennedy Powers, discussed the effects of tall-man lettering on visual behavior of critical care nurses while identifying syringe drug labels. The study found that tall-man lettering reduced medication errors and changed nurses' visual attention compared to non-tall-man letter coded labels. The second presentation, given by Alexis Morabi, focused on a phenobarbital-based protocol for alcohol withdrawal syndrome in the medical ICU. The study found that a phenobarbital-based protocol resulted in shorter ICU length of stay and lower rates of intubation compared to benzodiazepine-based protocols. The third presentation, by Alyssa Shaler, discussed the high-dose nitroglycerin infusion in the sympathetic crashing acute pulmonary edema (SCEPE) study. The study found that high-dose nitroglycerin infusion was a safe alternative to intermittent high-dose nitroglycerin boluses for managing SCEPE. Overall, the presentations highlighted the importance of medication safety, personalized treatment protocols, and the need for further research in critical care pharmacy.
