FREE MECHANICAL VENTILATION COURSE
Courtesy of Robert Chatburn & the Cleveland Clinic
From Robert Chatburn:
My colleagues and I at Cleveland Clinic have been developing a standardized system to teach basic mechanical ventilation technology, over the last decade. We have now completed a 12 module, self-directed course (PowerPoint files) and a ventilator simulator (Excel file) that contains links to many additional resources.
We offer both freely (no strings attached) with the intent of improving the lives of patients through better understanding of those who serve them; clinicians, educators, researchers, and engineers
To access these tools, do the following:
The Basic Course in Mechanical Ventilation and SIVA ventilator simulator are now available on the MyLearning website at Cleveland Clinic.
