Any good websites for the basics of vent?

[Long Dong]

I'm ending 4th year on MICU and I'm pretty clueless on the vent stuff. I did have a lecture during 3rd year on this stuff but totally forgot it. I'm scared a little cuz my second rotation of my TY is MICU. So please help a brother out with any websites, tutorials, audio lectures, power points, articles etc. that can get me up to speed fast on the basics of the vent and protocals. Thanks in advance.

Harrison's Chapter 252 has a good basic overview of vents.

This place has some good basics that are all there on the web for you. There are some good overviews of the ventilators and other machines that are currently in use...

Good luck

If you have any specific questions, feel free to PM me. I'm a respiratory therapist so vents are my area of expertise at the moment.
