Mechanical Power During Mechanical Ventilation: What, How, Why, presented in partnership with the Society of Mechanical Ventilation
Presented by Ehab Daoud, MD, FACP, FCCP
Video
Course: #1686Level: Advanced1 Hour
This course describes the concept of mechanical power and how to calculate it. The course discusses the role of mechanical power in ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI).

Liberation from Mechanical Ventilation: A Physiologic and Historical Perspective
Presented by Rich Kallet
Live WebinarThu, May 25, 2023 at 1:00 pm EDT
Course: #1786Level: Advanced1 Hour
The essence of weaning is that critically-ill patients can resume unassisted breathing when minute ventilation demands and mechanical disturbances in the pulmonary system improve enough that their respiratory muscles can handle increased workloads without developing fatigue. Therefore, this lecture explains how respiratory muscle physiology is impacted by pulmonary disease and also how ventilator strategies either facilitate or stymie weaning. Both aspects are essential for clinicians to master the art of weaning.

Key Concepts in the Management of Respiratory Failure Series: Extracorporeal Support (ECMO) and Adjunct Treatment
Presented by Keith Lamb, RRT, RRT-ACCS, FAARC, FCCM
Video
Course: #1630Level: Advanced1 Hour
This advanced course reviews extracorporeal support (ECMO) and adjunct treatment for patients with acute respiratory failure. The focus of the course is on increasing familiarity with findings in the current literature and includes future directions, theoretical information, and clinical and research applications. The extracorporeal support and adjunct treatment course is the third in the series and a stand-alone course examining the management of critically ill patients from the least invasive to most invasive modes of support.

Key Concepts in the Management of Respiratory Failure Series: Research Review and Case Reports
Presented by Keith Lamb, RRT, RRT-ACCS, FAARC, FCCM
Video
Course: #1631Level: Advanced1 Hour
This advanced course reviews noninvasive support, invasive mechanical ventilation, extracorporeal support and adjunct treatment research and case reports. The course focuses on increasing familiarity with findings in the current literature and includes future directions, theoretical information, and clinical and research applications. The course is the fourth in the series and a stand-alone course examining the evidence and case reports of critically ill patients from the least invasive to most invasive modes of support.

Key Concepts in the Management of Respiratory Failure Series: Invasive Mechanical Ventilation
Presented by Keith Lamb, RRT, RRT-ACCS, FAARC, FCCM
Video
Course: #1629Level: Advanced1 Hour
This advanced course reviews invasive mechanical ventilation for patients with acute respiratory failure. The focus of the course is on increasing familiarity with findings in the current literature and includes future directions, theoretical information, and clinical and research applications. The invasive mechanical ventilation course is the second in the series and a stand-alone course examining the management of critically ill patients from the least invasive to most invasive modes of support.

Ventilator Graphics and Asynchrony: Let’s Look Again
Presented by Tim Gilmore, PhD, RRT, RRT-ACCS, RRT-NPS, CPFT, AE-C
Video
Course: #1638Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This presentation is intended to overview common ventilator scalars/graphics associated with various conditions common to the intensive care environment that result in patient discomfort and asynchrony. This presentation provides a detailed review of ventilator graphics in general.

Unconventional and Advanced Modes of Ventilation
Presented by Justin Phillips, BS, RRT-ACCS
Video
Course: #1464Level: Advanced1 Hour
This advanced course reviews conventional and advanced modes of mechanical ventilation. The course discusses the underlying general theory of operation for alternative modes of support and criteria defining clinical success.

Laryngeal Mask Airway
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Video
Course: #1456Level: Introductory1 Hour
This introductory course reviews the laryngeal mask airway, a supraglottic airway device used transiently to maintain an open airway short term. The course focuses on increasing awareness of the benefits and understanding assessment of the patient during the use of the laryngeal mask airway.

Mechanical Ventilation: Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV)
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Video
Course: #1436Level: Introductory1 Hour
This introductory course discusses the indications and set-up parameters utilizing Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV). The course describes open and closed-loop ventilation management with the use of ASV mode.

Metabolic Measurement Using Indirect Calorimetry In Mechanical Ventilation
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Video
Course: #1352Level: Introductory1 Hour
This course is designed for respiratory therapists working in critical care understanding metabolic measurement using indirect calorimetry in mechanically ventilated patients. Objectives discuss the gold standard for measuring metabolism impacting the nutritional needs of the ventilated patient.
