Mechanical ventilation is an essential skill for any provider who has advanced airway management as a part of their scope of practice. Mechanical ventilation is the great equalizer in the transport environment. Through a mix of both lecture and hands on manipulation of the ventilator, this workshop will provide a foundational knowledge of mechanical ventilation, followed by utilization of lung simulators and case studies to solidify your newfound knowledge and prepare you for your next intubated patient.

Fee and advanced registration required.

Sponsored by Zoll and Hamilton.

Discuss the fundamental concepts of how to approach the mechanically ventilated patient.
Identify strategies to optimize oxygenation and ventilation utilizing the ventilation
