Resuscitation Part 2: Breathing (ventilation)

Here are some great videos on mechanical ventilation.

The basics of ventilation and care for patients on ventilator are discussed in the three videos. 

The first video discussed what is mechanical ventilation.

The second video discussed the nursing management of mechanical ventilation.

The third videos discussed how arterial blood gases can be interpreted easily

Once you understand the basics of blood gases and the basics of the mechanical ventilation, we can move on to understand the anatomy, connection and set up of transport ventilator used in Khoo Teck Puat Hospital, which is Oxylog 3000 plus. The first video demonstrate the oxylog 3000 which has similar features of oxylog 3000 plus.

Drager has a simulation trainer( in flash mode) to train users in the use of oxylog 3000. The screen shot is seen attached. Please click here to go to the link to begin training. (ads supported )
