Venue:

Description

Physics of mechanical ventilators A mechanical ventilator either fully or partially supports a patient’s work of breathing. The basic build of a mechanical ventilator can be described according to (1) input power (2) source of pressurised gas (3) drive mechanism, or (4) control circuit.

Objectives

1 Recognize and discuss different modes of ventilation 2 Introduction to low flow anesthesia 3 Understand the benefits of using Ecoflow 4 Discuss lung protective ventilation Guidelines in the Initiation of Mechanical Ventilation Primary goals of mechanical ventilation are adequate oxygenation/ventilation, reduced work of breathing, synchrony of vent and patient, and avoidance of high peak pressures
