0800-1630 High Performance Ventilation Workshop -Limited to 24 students
Category 1 8.0 hours BLS 11 ALS 16
Presenters: Bob Page, M.Ed, NRP, CCP, NCEE, CHSE, CHSOS and Dusty Lynn, RN, MSc., EMT-P, TCRN
Research shows that often, EMS providers have trouble ventilating patients. In this eye-opening, hands-on workshop, Bob shows participants how to ventilate patients by BVM, via Mask, ET tube, and supraglottic airways using state of the art simulators and feedback devices that measure pressures, volumes, and ventilatory rates. You will gain valuable insight and skills to improve your ventilation ability using this valuable feedback and coaching system. This lab features the tools and techniques to introduce you to the concept of high performance ventilation (HPV). The class is an arena format with plenty of time for hands on practice, not an airway class, but a ventilation class using state of the art ventilation equipment and advanced ventilation feedback devices.
