Please emphasize that there are occasions where PEEP might be 24, 28, etc and Driving pressure/trans pulmonary pressure is vital to monitor lung mechanics. Don’t forget to monitor the total PEEP. This is commonly observed in patients with higher BMI’s/distended abdomen (monitor bladder pressure).

Love your videos, Coach. I always refer back to you when working with our RT students

What’s up PEEPS

[@Godfavorsmi]

Positive end expiratory pressure; keeps alveoli’s open for gas exchange

Another great video coach! Would you consider doing another seminar but possibly virtually?

[@onefamilys4299]

Great presentation as always ! When you're explaining the flow to get to pip and it arrives at zero, could you explain that in RT Coach manner. I understand how it works that at beginning the pressure will stay constant but the time will decrease or it goes from 0-10 then 10-0 and as the "tank" reaches full it reaches zero. I guess what I'm asking is could you put a number-line on the waveform as you explain it ? If that make sense, I understand it, just can't explain it, You have a way of simplifying everything. Keep up the great work you do, Thanks Coach !!!!

Thank you so much I really get benefit from your videos, could you please make a video about HFOV?

Can you lecutre nitric oxide

[@9068669]

Question. In pressure control, should the flow waveform be used to determine an ideal I-time? Should the flow be close to 0 before ending the inspiratory cycle?

Hey Coach… Question for ya. If using NIV via the Servo… Settings are PEEP 6 PS of 8 Ordered NIV, 14/6 How would u interpret that? Is this truly BiPaP or is it Peep of 6 with PS of 8 with a driving pressure of 14…?

[@razchhhhh]

Thanks coach 🤍 Pls make a polysom and eeg reading next time

[@mustafashiker]

7:59 insp valve is closed to become flow is zero???

Love the RT humor lol

You should be a pulmonologist!!! 👨🏾‍⚕️
