00:01 So let's wrap up this video series. 00:03 So, continuity of care is the most important goal of the patient transfer. 00:07 That's why I really hope you took advantage of practicing SBAR before you looked at our answers. 00:13 Bedside report is an effective way to hand off patient care responsibilities. 00:18 That way, the 2 nurses can visualize the patients together and verify orders, IV rates, and patient status. 00:25 The first 24 hours after receiving thrombolytic drug requires frequent and close monitoring of a Critical Care Unit. 00:32 If possible, avoid any arterial sticks and other procedures that would cause bleeding for the first 24 hours. 00:40 Especially if the patient is safe without them, try to avoid them at all costs. 00:45 Now, blood pressure management in acute and ischemic strokes is different than with acute hemorrhagic strokes. 00:51 And don't forget, blood pressure management in acute strokes is different than chronic strokes. 00:57 Thank you for watching our video today.
