Fundamentals of Mechanical Ventilation Course
4/5
This course teaches the essentials of mechanical ventilation for ARDS and hypoxemic respiratory failure. Participants learn to apply safe ventilator settings, interpret waveforms, manage asynchrony, make ABG-based adjustments, and implement weaning strategies to enhance patient outcomes at the bedside.

What will I learn?
The Fundamentals of Mechanical Ventilation Course provides a practical framework for confidently managing ventilated patients. Key topics include ventilator modes, safe pressures, tidal volume based on predicted body weight, FiO2 and PEEP selection, waveform interpretation, and ARDS management strategies. Develop skills in ABG-guided adjustments, asynchrony handling, daily safety checks, infection control, and assessing weaning readiness in a concise, high-yield format.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Set lung-protective ventilator settings with safe tidal volume, PEEP, and FiO2.
- Interpret ventilator waveforms to spot asynchrony, auto-PEEP, and barotrauma early.
- Adjust ventilation based on ABGs by tuning RR, tidal volume, and permissive hypercapnia.
- Conduct daily ventilator safety checks to secure airway, prevent VAE, and document care.
- Evaluate weaning readiness through SBTs and decide on timely ventilator liberation.
