CVRR?

[MrRockerSN]

I just received my practicum assignment, I'm on a CVRR unit. Cardiovascular Recovery Room...does anyone have a good description this type of unit? I've looked online and nothing comes up. Any input would help. Thanks!

I'm not sure, but I think that this is the area that recovers CABG, open heart, maybe transplant patients after surgery.

When I went to nursing school, these patients were recovered in ICU, bypassing post anesthesia recovery.
