What will I learn?
This course offers a clear, practical framework for managing ventilated patients confidently. Key topics include ventilator modes, safe pressures, tidal volume based on predicted body weight, FiO2 and PEEP selection, waveform interpretation, and ARDS strategies. Develop expertise in ABG-based adjustments, asynchrony management, daily safety checks, infection prevention, and assessing weaning readiness in a concise, high-yield format.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Set lung-protective ventilator settings: apply safe tidal volume, PEEP, and FiO2.
- Interpret ventilator waveforms: detect asynchrony, auto-PEEP, and barotrauma early.
- Adjust ventilation using ABGs: fine-tune RR, tidal volume, and permissive hypercapnia.
- Perform daily ventilator safety checks: secure airway, prevent VAE, and document care.
- Assess weaning readiness: run SBTs and decide on timely liberation from the ventilator.
