MAP vs. NAP: The Impact of Mechanical Ventilation on Hemodynamics
Presented by Evan Richards, Advanced Practice Clinical Consultant, BSc, RT
Live WebinarMon, Nov 11, 2024 at 1:00 pm EST
Course: #2280Level: Intermediate1 Hour
Mechanical ventilators use positive pressure, unlike normal breathing, which uses negative pressure; as such, ventilators will always have some impact on hemodynamics. This course describes how to have the least detrimental impact on the lungs and other organs during NIV, CMV, and HFV.

Mechanical Ventilation: Lung Mechanics of Resistance and Compliance Measurement
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Live WebinarTue, Nov 12, 2024 at 5:00 pm EST
Course: #2093Level: Intermediate1 Hour
This introductory course introduces mechanical ventilation concepts, including lung mechanics related to resistance and compliance. Evidence-based methods for respiratory mechanics measurement are discussed, along with identifying early signs of pulmonary deterioration and best practice goals for management.

AUTO-PEEP: Calculation and Maneuver
Presented by Duane Reed, EdD, RRT, RCP
Live WebinarThu, Nov 14, 2024 at 5:00 pm EST
Course: #2107Level: Introductory1 Hour
Auto-PEEP, or Auto-Positive End-Expiratory Pressure, In respiratory therapy, is a critical phenomenon where insufficient time is allowed for complete exhalation, leading to an accumulation of air in the lungs before the next breath, potentially causing complications such as barotrauma and compromising oxygenation. The introductory course explores the determination of Auto-PEEP using extended methods, providing insights into the research on its identification and potential treatment measures.

High Frequency Jet Ventilation (HFJV): What, Why, When, and How
Presented by Evan Richards, Advanced Practice Clinical Consultant, BSc, RT
Video
Course: #2111Level: Advanced1 Hour
This lecture will detail what HFJV is, why you should use it, when you should apply it, and how to utilize it once it is applied.

Micropreemies: The New NICU Reality
Presented by Evan Richards, Advance Practice Clinical Consultant, BSc, RT
Video
Course: #2112Level: Advanced1 Hour
The edge of viability for premature babies has dropped to 22 weeks. This lecture will describe the complexities of ventilating the tiniest lungs and highlight studies that support HFJV.

Safe and Effective Mechanical Ventilation
Presented by Neil MacIntyre, MD, Professor of Medicine
Video
Course: #2141Level: Advanced1 Hour
A review of principles of respiratory life support. Focus will be on goals of mechanical support to include effective gas exchange and avoidance of ventilator induced lung injury.

MD Flavor of the Month…High Frequency Jet versus Oscillatory Ventilation
Presented by Kelly Massa, BHS, RRT-NPS
VideoText
Course: #2122Level: Intermediate1 Hour
High-frequency ventilation can be a challenge to set up, especially for those who use it infrequently. This course helps equip the learner with an understanding of the differences between the HFOV and HFJV ventilators and how to initiate/troubleshoot both.
