For all those emergency department nurses stepping into the resuscitation room for the first time (or itching to do so), here is a very good introductory video on using the Oxylog 3000 ventilator.
Of course the very best way to become familiar with this common piece of resuscitation kit is to grab your mentor or educator and get them to walk you through it.
But by watching this video a few times you will no doubt be able to impress them with your ventilatory acumen. Go you!

 

Once you have watched it you might also like to read this: Care of a ventilated patient in the emergency department.

  1. Great basic video will use with new staff

  2. Great video, very informative! Perfect for a bit of revision, but also as an introduction for new grads/students etc. Thankyou.

  3. So many cool things. I’m still getting comfortable in my General Internal Medicine unit, but I keep wondering where to next.

    ICU or ER, which direction should I focus?! Thanks for sharing all these cool videos.

    Cheers,
    Rob

    • John said: It’s not a failure of leadership but a plan to destabilize our medical system and fully privatize it. No more medicare, user pays, just like in the U.S. Also an excuse to import foreigners, give them citizinship, then use there citizinship to increase Australia’s international debt borrowing. No, you won’t read that...

    • Rachel said: I agree with you Fabbia. No matter how much we try to be good at educating our patients, at the end it is still up to the patient’s decision whether to follow what we have said or not. On our side, at least we know we have given whats the best for them. We can’t touch every patient’s lives always.
