Details

A comprehensive course outlining the concepts related to using non-invasive ventilation modalities in adult and paediatric populations. From basic concepts including important safety considerations, to initiating treatment and appropriate ongoing treatment efficacy monitoring, and finally to managing issues and titration quandaries. The first session covers the underlying disorders and physiology behind chronic respiratory failure, with a detailed discussion on NIV concepts and treatment goals. Participants will explore different NIV modalities, including evidence of benefit and real-world applications. In later sessions, hands-on device demonstrations will provide practical insights into choosing appropriate treatments, interpreting ABGs, and setting parameters. The course also highlights safety considerations for specialized populations, monitoring techniques, and patient education for improved treatment adherence. Participants will learn troubleshooting tips for patient titrations, including common issues like mask leaks and ventilator asynchrony. The final session will focus on transitioning care from paediatric to adult settings. This comprehensive program is designed for healthcare professionals involved in NIV therapy for chronic respiratory failure, with both theoretical and practical components. Morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea are included.
