Basics of electrolyte imbalances - Part 1

Disturbances in fluid and electrolytes are among the most common clinical problems encountered in the intensive care unit (ICU). Recent studies have reported that fluid and electrolyte imbalances are associated with increased morbidity and mortality among critically ill patients. To provide optimal care, health care providers should be familiar with the principles and practice of fluid and electrolyte physiology and pathophysiology. Thorough knowledge of Critical Care Medicine will help you understand electrolyte and fluid balance better and help achieve better outcomes for your patients.
Critical care specialists form a crucial part of any department due to their expertise in dealing with complex clinical problems representing the extremes of diseases. It is the most technologically advanced and resource-intensive area of medical care. The Fellowship in Critical Care Medicine Edition II course by Medvarsity will help you learn about the ICU setup, quality and safety needs, general principles of critical care, and management of specific critical illnesses. Apart from online content, there are live virtual classes (webinars) by experts throughout the course to allow you to interact with the faculty. At the end of the course, you will be placed in a 3-month rotational internship in a leading institute that will allow you to work with leading intensivists and apply your theoretical knowledge to practice.
