Neonatal Ventilation 16-18 May 2023

THIS COURSE RUNS 16-18 May 2023

The course is suitable for neonatal and paediatric consultants, trainees and nurse practitioners who want to have a good understanding of the principles of ventilation and wish to advance their training in this area. The course is 3 days long. Day 1 introduces basic concepts of ventilation. Days 2 and 3 deal with more advanced concepts of ventilatory practice with practical sessions in the afternoon. While days 2 and 3 build on the topics discussed on day 1, any of the days can be completed alone.

Topics:

Lectures:

Intubation and video laryngoscopy

Basic respiratory physiology

Conventional ventilation modes (CMV, SIMV, SIPPV and PSV)

Volume targeted ventilation

Responding to blood gases and emergencies of ventilated infants

Neonatal chest X-ray interpretation

Waveforms, loops and patient-ventilator interactions

Monitoring ventilation

NAVA ventilation

HFOV and HFOV-VG

Nasal SIPPV and nasal HFOV

Disease specific ventilation strategies

Point of care lung ultrasound

Nitric oxide in the term and preterm infant

Echocardiography of the ventilated infant

Management of PPHN

Ventilation case reviews

Practical sessions:

Practical sessions will be both on days 2 and 3 between 14:00 – 17:00. During them faculty members will present and discuss common clinical scenarios for small groups of participants using various neonatal ventilator models set up for use with artificial lungs. There will also be a video-laryngoscopy session where delegates can learn and practice the use of these devices.
