Description

In the fight against COVID-19, providing adequate mechanical ventilation has become paramount in saving lives and managing critical cases. This comprehensive course is designed to equip healthcare professionals with the knowledge and skills to master mechanical ventilation techniques tailored explicitly to COVID-19 patients. From understanding the pathophysiology of respiratory failure to implementing advanced ventilation strategies, this course offers invaluable insights and practical guidance to optimize patient outcomes in this global pandemic.

What you'll gain

  1. Fundamentals of Respiratory Physiology: Gain a deep understanding of the underlying principles of respiratory physiology, including lung mechanics, gas exchange, and ventilation-perfusion relationships. Explore the pathophysiology of respiratory failure in COVID-19 patients and its implications for mechanical ventilation management.
  2. Ventilator Basics and Modes: Familiarize yourself with the essential components of mechanical ventilators and the various ventilation modes commonly used to manage COVID-19 patients. Learn to select the most appropriate mode based on the patient’s condition and therapeutic goals.
  3. Ventilator Settings and Optimization: Master the art of setting and adjusting ventilator parameters to achieve optimal oxygenation and ventilation while minimizing ventilator-induced lung injury. Understand the significance of tidal volume, respiratory rate, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP), and FiO2 in ventilator management.
  4. Principles of Lung Protective Ventilation: Explore the principles of lung protective ventilation strategies to mitigate ventilator-associated lung injury and improve patient outcomes. Learn how to implement low tidal volume ventilation, permissive hypercapnia, and prone positioning to optimize lung recruitment and ventilation distribution.
  5. Management of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS): Delve into the diagnosis and management of ARDS in COVID-19 patients, focusing on evidence-based interventions such as lung recruitment maneuvers, prone positioning, and neuromuscular blockade. Understand the role of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in refractory cases of respiratory failure.
  6. Advanced Ventilation Strategies: Explore advanced ventilation techniques, including high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), airway pressure release ventilation (APRV), and extracorporeal CO2 removal (ECCO2R), in the management of severe COVID-19-related respiratory failure. Learn how to troubleshoot standard ventilator alarms and complications.
  7. Interdisciplinary Collaboration and Communication: Understand the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration and effective communication in managing COVID-19 patients requiring mechanical ventilation. Explore strategies for promoting teamwork, enhancing communication, and mitigating risks in the critical care setting.
  8. Patient Monitoring and Outcomes Assessment: Learn how to effectively monitor ventilated COVID-19 patients and interpret critical ventilator and physiological parameters. Gain insight into assessing patient outcomes, including liberation from mechanical ventilation, ventilator-associated complications, and long-term sequelae.
