New Strategies in Treating Respiratory Failure— NIV & HFNO as complementary therapies - 1.0 CEUs
Description:
Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) or the delivery of positive pressure ventilation delivered through a noninvasive interface has become more common as its benefits are increasingly recognized. NIV has proven efficacy for hypercapnic respiratory failure, especially that due to COPD exacerbations. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNO) comprises an air/oxygen blender, an active humidifier, a single heated circuit, and a nasal cannula. HFNO has shown promise to treat hypoxic respiratory failure. This webinar will explore a new strategy in the treatment of respiratory conditions and discussion on how HFNO with NIV enables a complementary approach for weaning efficiency.
Learning Objectives:
At the completion of this activity, the participant will be able to:
- Discuss indications for NIV and HFNO
- Compare and contrast physiologic actions of NIV and HFNO
- Demonstrate how HFNO and NIV can work in complementary fashion

This is a privately run site, just me & my husband. He helped me set it up & I have been running it since then. I am the one who finds the CEUs & posts them. The site saves you techs money & helps you keep your certification(s). If each person who uses the site would give $2 or more at least once, it would cover the cost of keeping the site up and give us a small profit. After over 7 years of running this site, the income from ads & tips barely pays for itself. We make NOTHING for our time & effort to keep it up. A tip is a way to say thanks & to keep this site available for everyone.
As always, there are no fees or registration required to use this site.
Thanks in advance!
