Course material

THE ROLE OF THE PHYSIO IN WEANING PROTOCOLS FOR VENTILATED PATIENTS ONLINE COURSE with Wilma Erasmus.

Recent guidelines have recommended including physiotherapy early during mechanical ventilation to speed the process of weaning. As the rehabilitation specialist in the ICU team, physiotherapists do play a vital role in regaining muscle strength, including respiratory muscle strength. Therefore physiotherapists should work closely with the ICU team to develop an individualised weaning plan. If you lack the knowledge and confidence to take up this role in the ICU team then this course is for you.

The take home objectives of this 3 hour course are 3 fold:
a) to stimulate and broaden your interest in this exciting field of health care;
b) to equip you with the required knowledge with regards to the different ventilation modes and the effect of prolonged mechanical ventilation on the patient, specifically the respiratory muscles;
c) to provide practical guidelines for an individualise weaning program with specific screening tests and a daily progression plan, based on exercise physiology.
