Curious about how to enhance patient safety with external ventricular drains or EVDs? Join us as we unravel the intricacies of EVDs and their pivotal role in perioperative care. With over 25,000 EVD placements annually in the United States, it's crucial for anesthesia and critical care professionals to master the management of these devices to prevent serious complications. We delve into the fundamentals of EVDs, covering their function, placement, and the common risks associated with their use.

We'll discuss the campaign's objectives, which include raising awareness, providing education, promoting standardized guidelines, and enhancing clinical proficiency. Discover the wealth of resources available in the EVD Knowledge Hub, designed to equip healthcare professionals with the skills needed to ensure optimal patient outcomes.
