The Roman physician Galen was the first to use mechanical breathing in the second century by blowing air into the larynx of a dead animal using a reed.

Nowadays, the need for mechanical ventilation is a common feature of the patient requiring admission to the ICU.

This free webinar reviewed which pressures to monitor in mechanically ventilated patients as well as future directions.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

Join this webinar to learn more about:

• the physiology behind the use of transpulmonary pressures to guide mechanical ventilation
