Mechanical Ventilation WorkshopÂ
From Basics to Advanced Physiology —
Learn Ventilation the Way It Happens at the Bedside
Join an intensive, high-yield Mechanical Ventilation Workshop designed for intensivists, anesthesiologists, critical care trainees, pulmonologists, emergency physicians, and ICU practitioners who want to strengthen both foundational understanding and advanced ventilatory management skills.
This comprehensive workshop combines core concepts, advanced ventilation strategies, waveform interpretation, troubleshooting, hands-on demonstrations, and practical ICU applications to deliver a clinically focused learning experience.
Participants will gain structured exposure to:
The advanced sessions will further explore:
- Respiratory mechanics relevant to mechanical ventilation
- Ventilator basics and initiation strategies
- Conventional ventilation modes — VCV, PCV, SIMV, PSV
- Scalars and loops interpretation
- Closed-loop ventilation and PRVC
- Troubleshooting ventilated patients
- Non-invasive ventilation (NIV)
- High Flow Nasal Oxygen (HFNO)
- Humidification and nebulisation during ventilation
- Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV)
- Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA)
- Patient–ventilator dysynchronies
- Diaphragm protective ventilation
- Ventilation strategies in COPD and asthma
- Lung protective ventilation in ARDS
Exclusive Live/Video Demonstrations
Experience practical demonstrations of modern ICU ventilation techniques including:
- Transpulmonary pressure monitoring
- NAVA application on ventilator platforms
- Recruitment maneuvers using lung models
- Ultrasound-guided weaning assessment:
- Diaphragm ultrasound
- Intercostal muscle assessment
- Lung ultrasound
Interactive Skill Stations
Hands-on stations will allow participants to directly practice:
- Initiation of ventilator settings
- Conventional ventilation modes
- PRVC setup and optimization
- Recognition and correction of asynchronies
- HFNC application
- NIV interfaces and troubleshooting
This workshop is designed to bridge the gap between ventilator theory and real-world ICU practice, helping participants develop confidence in managing mechanically ventilated patients across diverse critical care scenarios.
Whether you are beginning your ventilation journey or refining advanced ICU skills, this workshop offers a clinically relevant, practical, and evidence-based learning experience.
