Critically ill patients are at high risk for poor end-organ perfusion and cellular oxygenation due to inadequate oxygen supply and increased oxygen demand. Critical care nurses must integrate complex knowledge of physiology, pathophysiology, patient assessment, and critical care interventions in their clinical decision-making. The Oxygen Supply and Demand Framework is a tool to guide the process of patient assessment, data interpretation, selection of appropriate nursing interventions, and understanding the rationale for all aspects of critical care patient management. Delegates will have the opportunity to apply the framework in a series of authentic critical care case studies that will assist them in all aspects of their decision-making in clinical practice, whether they are novice or experienced practitioners.
