Course Description:

Let’s be honest, mechanical ventilation has been utilized for years for severely ill patients.  However, the presence of COVID over the last several years has really highlighted ventilation usage. Therapy prescriptions after mechanical ventilation are not just reserved for respiratory therapists. Many post-ventilator patients are being treated by physical and occupational therapists and sometimes athletic trainers. What happens to a patient’s lungs after mechanical ventilation? How can we help them return to their pre-intubation status? What exercises and activities are appropriate?

  • Identify the structures related to the anatomy and physiology of the diaphragm
