This activity is available by invitation only. 

Refresher course for Physicians in the use of Mechanical Ventilation, including indications, basic settings, adjustments in response to physiologic needs and troubleshooting. This activity uses a blended-learning approach. Learners will participate in online enduring material asynchronous activities to revisit the basics of mechanical ventilation. Subsequently they will participate in an internet live activity with questions and answer session. Finally, learners will undergo assessment using case scenarios and will provide mechanical ventilation recommendations to the virtual respiratory therapist (CELA staff).



Objectives
After participating in this educational activity, participants should be able to:

  1. Identify patients for whom mechanical ventilatory support is indicated
  2. Initiate mechanical ventilation support as indicated by patient physiology
  3. Apply standard VUMC specific mechanical ventilation strategies to patients
  4. Adjust mechanical ventilation strategy based on deranged patient physiology and/or mechanical ventilation safety alarms
  5. Identify patients ready for deescalation of mechanical ventilatory support


Vanderbilt University Medical Center is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) to provide continuing medical education for physicians.

Vanderbilt University Medical Center designates this Other activity (blended-learning) for a maximum 4.00 AMA PRA Category 1 Credit(s)™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
