Key Topics

Concepts

  • Respiratory Mechanics & PEEP & Position
  • Heart-Lung Interaction including V/Q matching
  • Lung Injury vs Lung Protection Lung

Monitoring and Beyond

  • EIT – ventilation & perfusion
  • Oesophageal and transpulmonary pressure measurement
  • Volumetric capnography
  • Lung ultrasound
  • Lung hysteresis & PV tool
  • Hemodynamic Monitoring

How and When

  • Start MV (HiFlow, NIV, IMV)
  • Open the lung safely
  • Set optimal PEEP
  • Set optimal position
  • Change to support ventilation
  • Assess respiratory drive & effort
  • Manage patient-ventilator interaction

Programme Highlights

We are pleased to share the highlights that will be featured during the event. Participants will take part in immersive hands-on training using in-vivo models, supported by live data interpretation and simulation-based learning:

 

  • Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT): setup and application
  • PEEP titration techniques in normal, obese, and ARDS lungs
  • Monitoring of ventilation/perfusion distribution and lung perfusion
  • Heart-lung interactions and effects of patient positioning (lateral, prone, back-rest elevation)
  • Detection and management of patient–ventilator asynchrony
  • Use of advanced technologies: EIT, ALT, pressure-volume loops
  • Scenario-based group discussions and peer-to-peer data interpretation
