Concept Note Pediatric Advanced Ventilation Smart Workshop 24 January 2024 Venue: Renai Medicity, Kochi

Key Reasons to Attend

  • Meet some of the most pre-eminent researchers in the field
  • Get an up-to-date overview of advanced diagnostic and treatment options of mechanical ventilation by some of the most pre-eminent researchers in the field
  • Participate in a highly interactive course, blending theory with clinical case discussions, ventilator waveform interpretation and hands-on sessions
  • Exchange best practice and network with leading experts and peers
  • CME Credit Hours

Programme Content

  • Pathophysiology of ARDS
  • Controlled versus assisted mechanical ventilation
  • Strategies to set PEEP and lung recruitment
  • Assessment of respiratory mechanics
  • Heart and lung interaction during controlled and assisted ventilation
  • Non-invasive and non-conventional forms of ventilation
  • Prone position
  • Disease-specific Ventilation
  • Complications and Risks of a Ventilator
  • Bedside imaging to guide mechanical ventilation
  • Weaning from mechanical ventilation and much more

Who Should Attend This Master Class?

  • Junior intensivists seeking a basic to advanced approach in mechanical ventilation treatment
  • Senior intensivists wanting a comprehensive refresher course and/or to deepen knowledge of specific aspects

What You'll Learn

Mechanical ventilation is one of the most common interventions implemented in the intensive care unit. More than half of the patients in the ICU are ventilated the first 24 hours after ICU admission; comprised of individuals who have acute respiratory failure, compromised lung function, difficulty in breathing, or failure to protect their airway.

Advanced ventilator course is worth learning since this course gives extensive content on introduction to ventilator use in ICU, for COVID -19 patients, details about ARDS ventilation and Prone ventilation, weaning from mechanical ventilation, care of the patient post tracheostomy.
