This webinar seeks to provide nurses and other radiology team members an overview of spontaneous intracranial hypotension (SIH). This is a rare and underdiagnosed condition characterized by various neurological findings that are attributed to cerebral spinal fluid leaks. A growing body of literature is helping to better explain symptoms, imaging techniques, and treatment options for SIH. As this condition is better understood, radiology nurses will play an increasingly important role for these patients in the radiologic and imaging environments.

Patients with extraventricular drain catheters (EVD) frequently require procedures done in the Radiology and Imaging setting. Expert knowledge is needed by radiology and imaging nurses to assist in the transport and treatment of these patients. This educational article provides information regarding the EVDs and specific patient care required. Many radiology and imaging nurses lack this in depth information regarding EVDs.
The central role of radiology in the decision-making process for managing blast injury victims ensures a large percent of mass casualty patients will require radiology services during their initial assessment. The potential for movement of significant number of seriously injured patients through radiology requires familiarity with the mechanisms of blast injury, potential red flags for patients who should proceed to definitive care rather than additional studies, and early signs of deterioration to watch for while in the radiology department.

As a registered nurse with over 30 years of experience in several arenas, I have witnessed the introduction of many infectious processes. Currently, I am the Infection Prevention Nurse for my facility, a role which has increased my awareness of infections both potential and active. Working in an outpatient facility brings more challenges due to the limited resources at hand, so it is imperative that I educate myself so I am better able to assist my co-workers while keeping our patients safe and free from infections. I hope to share this knowledge with my colleagues during the ARIN Convention.
I have been a registered nurses for over 30 years working in a variety of settings, such as emergency, consulting, educating, and interventional radiology. My roles include staff nurse, nurse manager, educator, consultant and teacher. My post high school education includes attending a hospital-based nursing program where I earned the honor of sitting for the examination leading to my Registered Nurse License in Pennsylvania.
A few years later I began my college education to attain my BSN. A Master's Degree in Health Administration (MHA) followed 2 years later. Shortly thereafter, I was honored to be chosen to attend Villanova University to complete a Post-Master's Certificate in Nursing Administration. I have also held certifications in emergency nursing and currently hold the credential of Certified Radiology Nurse.

Highlights
•Capnography is underused by radiologic and imaging nurses during procedural sedation.
•The use of capnography during procedural sedation enhances patient safety.
•A reliance on pulse oximetry as a surrogate monitor for ventilation delays identification of apnea.
•Radiology procedure areas have inherent limitations for direct patient visualization.
•Effective use of capnography requires a standardized interpretation approach.

The field of Interventional Oncology is an emerging discipline that offers the patient with a cancer diagnosis, in particular those diagnosed with HCC, an option when one wasn’t previously available. Interventional Oncology offers therapeutic interventions such as TACE, DEB TACE, radioembolization, as well radiofequency ablation, microwave ablation, and cryoembolization. In addition, an extremely important part of the Interventional oncology discipline is the supportive aspect and procedures that are part of the overall process. The presentation will touch on the current treatments options available through Interventional Oncology, both therapeutic and supportive, as well as trends in the discipline. In addition, the role of the Radiology nurse in assessment, planning, education, and treatment will be addressed

Creating a culture of evidence-based practice in a radiology/imaging department is often easier said than done. What’s clear, however, is that evidence should be used to define best practices rather than support existing, and perhaps outdated procedures. Evidence-based practice based on research is more likely to result in desired patient outcomes. It also provides opportunities for nursing care to be more individualized, effective, streamlined, and dynamic, while maximizing the effects of clinical judgment.
