Strengthen your skills and learn techniques for mechanical ventilation in the critically ill patient—including advances in ventilator technology—through online interactive lectures; in-person interactive discussions; live, hands-on small group workshops; and case-based exercises. This comprehensive, interactive program combines online learning with a 1-day hands-on experience and emphasizes practical solutions for issues related to patients in respiratory failure.
Topics include:
- Ventilator modes
- Respiratory system mechanics
- Ventilator-induced lung injury
- Management of obstructive and parenchymal lung disease
- Management of severe hypoxemia
- Patient-ventilator interactions and synchrony
- Noninvasive ventilation
Objectives
- Review the principles of mechanical ventilation with a focus on protecting the lungs.
- Analyze ventilator graphics for changing lung mechanics and for optimal patientventilator synchrony.
- Define ventilatory management of parenchymal lung injury, obstructive disease, and severe hypoxemia.
- Discuss mechanical ventilation liberation strategies.
- Discuss controversial topics related to mechanical ventilation strategies
