Targeted Temperature Management in Nursing Care.

During the 2019 Therapeutic Hypothermia and Temperature Management Symposium in Miami, state-of-the-art lectures on the current advances in the use of temperature management were conducted. Dr. Gretchen M. Brophy moderated a session on targeted temperature management (TTM) in nursing care. An outstanding lecture was given by David A. Hildebrandt on establishing and managing a TTM program in the hospital. Elizabeth A. Moore lectured on establishing an Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation program from a nursing perspective. Finally, Todd J. Van de Bussche provided a very personal story on his experience with hypothermia in terms of the patient perspective. All these presentations were outstanding and stimulated a rich discussion among the attendees of the conference.
