About this Webcast
This presentation will explore best practices in patient-ventilator assessments and the early identification of ventilator-patient discordances (asynchronies). Respiratory therapists play a critical role in ensuring optimal ventilator support by recognizing mismatches between patient effort and ventilator delivery. Timely identification and correction of these issues can reduce complications, improve patient comfort, and shorten ICU stays. The session will integrate clinical guidelines, waveform interpretation, and case-based learning to reinforce practical skills.
