This study day provides a comprehensive exploration of ventilation and respiratory management across the ICU setting. It will cover principles for the management of Level 1 and 2 patients through to advanced ventilation strategies, including ECMO, alongside key concepts including weaning and extubation planning.
Participants will develop their understanding of advanced respiratory assessment techniques and the management of complex cases, including patients already requiring long term ventilation. The day will also highlight the critical role of the multi-professional team in optimising patient outcomes. Emphasis will be placed on collaborative approaches to care in response to increasing patient complexity.
