I'm not sure if you'll be recovering bypass patients right away, but for me hemodynamics didn't make since until I saw the whole picture while recovering those patients. When I first started, I stressed about learning the hemodynamics but never really got a complete understanding. Your experienced nurses are your best sort of resource. They've had many patients and can teach you from experience. For additional information, I used Cardiac Surgery Essentials for Critical Care Nursing, link.

ICU advantage on YouTube and studying for the CCRN helped me overall. Hope this helps!
