LEARNING OBJECTIVES
What You’ll Learn
- Calculate illustrative minute and alveolar ventilation while distinguishing them from patient prescriptions.
- Explain how rate, resistance, compliance and expiratory time affect ventilation and circulation.
- Assess and improve manual gas delivery through a patent airway and effective interface.
- Recognize mismatches between selected and delivered mechanical support and respond to alarms and transitions.
- Integrate ventilation trends, clinical context and escalation into a clear patient-specific handoff.
