HLT6095-21-UOB-J Managing the Acutely ill Patient

Welcome to YEAR 3- YOU MADE IT!!! 

During this module you will examine various causes for why patients can become acutely unwell at any point in their perioperative journey. Students will develop their knowledge, skills and behaviours relating to the assessment and management of the deteriorating patient, and explore the necessary monitoring and interventions essential to delivering quality, evidence- based care. Early recognition and response to the deteriorating patient is centric to safer surgery and perioperative care.

Students will be required to undertake work-based learning placements in critical care areas outside of the operating theatre, e.g. intensive care and accident and emergency, in order to gain exposure to various acute patient presentations. Advanced clinical skills will be taught and practised including cannulation, venepuncture, urinary catheterisation and blood gas analysis. Fundamental aspects of acute illness will be covered including bereavement and end of life care, as well as the importance of effective interprofessional communication and handover for safe care prioritisation and delivery. Key topics taught and assessed will include: A-E assessment and triage, types of shock, major trauma, reversible causes of cardiac arrest, resuscitation and patient transfers.

HLT5029-20-UOB-J Principles of Medicines Management

This module will expand on prior introductions to commonly used medicines in perioperative practice, and undertake in-depth exploration of safe medicines management for the Operating Department Practitioner (ODP). Students will focus on the practitioners' adherence to legislation, policy and professional standards for the safe prescribing, dispensing, administration, storage and disposal of medicines in perioperative practice. Students will be introduced to pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics and apply knowledge and rationale to patient anatomy and changing physiology throughout the perioperative journey.

Special patient groups of children and the elderly will be considered, in addition to routine and emergency surgical scenarios. Students will be exposed to effective learning environments to provide exposure to medicines management practice, and will be required to demonstrate the ability to calculate drug dosages and safely administer medicines. Key topics taught and assessed will include pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, routine and emergency perioperative medicines, routes of administration, drug calculations and the 5 rights to drug administration.
