This course aims to provide an evidence-based approach to
the assessment and management of the ventilated patient. Using relevant
physiology, assessment skills will be developed to identify the key problems of
the intensive care patient. Mechanical ventilation, chest drains, monitoring and
support systems will be covered including safety factors. Physiotherapy
techniques for the mechanically-ventilated patient will be critically evaluated
in conjunction with a practical session on pressures for manual hyperinflation
and modifications for specific disorders.
Through interactive sessions and scenarios appropriate and
in appropriate use of the on-call system will be explored. These will all be
accompanied by current literature and critical thought and problem solving will
be encouraged by the use of case studies.
