Mechanical Ventilation in Status Asthmaticus: A Strategic Approach To Ventilator Management And Monitoring
Course: #1305Level: Intermediate 1 Hour 251 Reviews
The course focuses on ventilator scalar graphics to identify the presence of physiologic abnormalities in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation for severe refractory asthma. Discussion of monitoring and diagnostic techniques that aid in the ventilator management of the severe asthmatic will be introduced.

Learning Outcomes
- After this course, participants will be able to describe how scalar airway pressure tracings can be used to identify the presence of Pendelluft Motion in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation for severe refractory asthma.
- After this course, participants will be able to explain how the severity and heterogeneity of gas trapping can be judged by examining the scalar airway pressure tracing during an expiratory pause maneuver.
- After this course, participants will be able to explain why maximizing mechanical ventilation expiratory time during severe refractory asthma has limited efficacy in reducing pulmonary gas trapping and may worsen gas exchange.
