Mechanical Ventilation Course 2022 — from the equation of motion to liberation, sedation and quality
The Mechanical Ventilation Course 2022 is a set of 26 recorded lectures, case discussions and panels that follows a ventilated patient from first settings to the day the tube comes out. It starts with respiratory mechanics and control of breathing, moves through refractory hypoxaemia, proning and ECLS, and finishes with sedation, delirium, mobilisation and unit-level quality improvement.

What you’ll be able to do
- Measure and interpret pressures, volumes and flow using the equation of motion
- Set PEEP and recruitment and escalate to proning, inhaled vasodilators or ECLS
- Recognise patient-ventilator dyssynchrony and excessive respiratory drive
- Choose between conventional, advanced, PAV and NAVA modes, high-flow and NIV
- Judge readiness for liberation and plan for the patient who is hard to wean
Inside the course
Mechanical ventilation physiology first
Opening lectures cover what to measure at the bedside, control of breathing, determinants of drive and effort, and heart-lung interactions, giving the vocabulary the later sessions rely on.
Protecting lung and diaphragm
Talks on PEEP, recruitment and protective ventilation lead into cases on refractory hypoxaemia and ECLS, spontaneous breathing, and ventilation after acute brain injury.
Modes, oxygen targets and transport
Conventional and advanced modes, PAV and NAVA, high-flow nasal cannula, non-invasive support and oxygen setting are compared, with a practical look at moving ventilated patients safely.
Sedation, weaning and quality
Evidence-based sedation and delirium care, two “how I do it” liberation talks and panels on mobilisation and quality of care close the programme.
Built for
- ICU residents and fellowsA physiology-to-bedside curriculum on the ventilator.
- Respiratory therapistsMode selection, synchrony and liberation assessment in one place.
- Intensivists and ICU nursesA refresher on sedation, mobility and ventilator quality programmes.

Before you buy
Who produced the course?
No organiser, faculty names or running times are given, only the 26 lecture titles; one title, on transporting ventilated patients, appears twice, which may mean a two-part talk or a repeated file.
Is the content current?
The recordings date from 2022, so trials and guidance published since then are not covered.
Do I get CME credit or a certificate?
No. Clinicapedia provides the educational content only — no CME or CE credits, MOC points or certificates of completion are included with this product.
