OTReference Pocket Guide: Critical Care Rehab Set

This Critical Care Rehab Set of Occupational Therapy Quick Reference cards is comprised of 14 double-sided pages of reference material relevant to individuals studying or working within the field of Occupational Therapy with a focus on the rehabilitation of clients/patients within a critical care (ex: intensive care unit or ICU) setting. Pages are color coded to coincide with different topic areas to facilitate the “quick” aspect of this quick reference item. Whereas many other quick reference products on the market are targeted at a general medical audience, this product was designed by a licensed Occupational Therapist (OT) with 3+ years of experience within the critical care setting and caters to the distinct “OT Mindset.” Topics found on the cards revolve around adult rehabilitation and range from: Ventilator modes, ventilator terminology, descriptions of commonly utilized non-invasive oxygen devices, FiO2 conversions for nasal cannula and non-rebreather supplemental oxygen devices, delirium and Occupational Therapy treatment approaches to patients who are delirious, sepsis, common contradictions or red flags for functional mobility in the critical care setting, signs of emergency, medication classes and their functional implications, norms for lab values and their functional implications, norms for vitals and their functional implications, arterial blood gas descriptions, and an 8 step ICU treatment checklist that supports the streamlining of safe, efficient, and thorough treatment behaviors. NOTE: The information found on this quick reference pocket guide is NOT a formal practice guide. Clinicians and students are encouraged to primarily refer to the unique policies and procedures upheld by their facility and/or the medical providers who are directing the care of their patients/clients.
