Understanding Ventilator Settings

[@christikcrt1]

I think that ALL respiratory therapy staff members that work in ICU, should be made to watch this video at LEAST twice a year and pass a quiz following the video. Should be MANDATORY. This guy is GOOD!

[@steviesmj]

not only did you explain the concepts in a way that i could understand but your voice is perfect to give lectures, talks, etc! Thank you for posting this vid!!!

[@thegignurse3035]

Bill was awesome 11 years ago as a 4th year med student, I’d love to see his educational videos today. Great speaker!!!

[@soyourcar]

BRILLIANT! Respiratory physiotherapists, doctors and nurses are thanking you!

[@drabhishekendo]

I am a ANAESTHESIA resident at Indore,India..found this video,especially Complications so much useful that i cant express in words...

[@seaweedsally]

In same boat as Kimberly - RN whose previous explanations have fallen way short of the helpful knowledge imparted by this presentation. Excellent presentation!! 10/10.

[@Hameedinsanit]

Wanted to watch for a few minutes but ended up watching the whole lecture. That's the hallmark of an excellent teacher!

[@claremidson863]

i just want to say i am a ICU nursing grad and i have struggled to understand Vents i want you to know that you have given me a light bulb moment and delivered this in a way that has truely helped me. so thank you ever so much!!!!

[@Behnoud236]

People that "dislike" videos like this with so much great information and clear explanation, should at least be brave enough to state the reasons for their dislike in the comments section.

[@KBearRawrRawr]

Pharmacy resident here, this was by far the best intro to vent setting and complications i seen, better than the RT that taught us. From a pharmacological standpoint, factors that decrease Cardiac Output such as tidal volume, RR, and peep at the higher end can result in altered pharmacological effect by high E drug that are flow dependent, including phenytoin.

[@geff801]

Excellent video! Much respect from a fellow 4th year medical student. You will be a great attending one day. Best of luck!

[@alec7729]

Thank you for uploading!! I'm a respiratory therapy student and I've always struggled with school work since the beginning of highschool due to needing a more detailed explanation that I felt was hard to get. This video is absolutely wonderful!! Ventilators are so complicated and I just started learning about it in school so this video is helping me a lot!! Thank you!!

[@tetlee555]

By far, the best video on youtube to learn basics about mechanical ventilation. You are a natural teacher !! Keep up the good work. More power to you !!

[@mayaka70]

I usually never leave comments on lectures on you tube but I am so grateful at your explanations I am really lost for words. This has made understanding ventilators so easy Thanks you sooooo much. .

[@kristaG73]

I am a critical care transport nurse and I LOVED this video! I was looking for more *gems* to help me manage my patients, as I'm the only one in the back of the rig and I want to learn more about ventilation. Thanks for taking the time for this. Great job on this!

[@sianyfitz]

This has been so helpful! I am on an ICU placement at the minute and I am finding all of the ventilators and other machines very difficult to understand. You're explanations were very clear and thorough - many thanks for sharing!

[@nursedannykaye]

Thank you, so much. I needed this tutorial...everyone is moving so fast in hospital nobody has time to explain anything. No matter if it is the ED or ICU... healthcare is fast moving.

[@reza1285]

I used to be a ventilation specialist before joining SIEMENS,this presentation is brilliant...

[@atiyapowell6968]

Im a respiratory student online and I felt like I was in class, really thanks so much. I'm on mechanical ventilations and you teach it so simple, thanks seriously, I understand it so much better!

[@KC-ej2hq]

Atiya Powell I have had you in several of my classes! IU right? I'm in my last class...2 weeks before graduation...needed a review before the big test! This is definitely helpful. I wish you the best!

[@atiyapowell6968]

I figured out how to respond lol. I in boxed you in our class canvas.

[@jujubean881]

Can I ask what school offers online for respiratory?

[@christmasdonkey86]

I’ve recently joined a company that produce these machines and having little prior knowledge, this proved really helpful! Thanks!!

[@katefoster420]

Thank you SO much! Writing my ICU patient paper for nursing school, and your video clearly explained the information I was seeking. Well done!

[@eliassiraj5370]

man what an amazing teacher this man is. I have trouble focusing but the way this man teaches had me interested and focused all the way through. Thank you for this.

[@amlakie]

Amazing presentation... I have asked many people to give me a crash course on vent management , but this video tops them all.

[@tubinit2007]

Great job! Thanks for a very helpful tutorial. Better than any book I've seen. Thorough and to-the-point.

[@lvbby9]

New ICU RN...Wow! This is awesome...Thank you for taking time to explain this to me in such a simple way that I might be able to share it with patients families and other new nurses.

[@choklitfairy9]

I'm a home health LVN. This has been more helpful than any of the training I received through school or my company. Thank you so much.

[@KidsNNeurons]

If you are a teaching professor, then more people would go to school instead of skipping class. Absolutely great lecture! Thank you.

[@JB-1234]

I keep coming back for a refresher to your video, you were born to teach. Please do more videos!!

[@mkrasovitsky]

Mate I'm an intern doing an ICU rotation at the moment - your video has been a great help!

[@dangtrangthu]

I rarely leave a moment, but I MUST for you. You have a gift for teaching ! You are very knowledgeable and able to simply everything and make learning an easy process. I thank you :)

[@genevievesp]

Wow!!! this guy is excellent at teaching and knows how to get the message across!! 10/10 Mr. Selove!!! uve helped me a lot... thank u!

[@Yakub87]

This is one of the most important medical movie on KZbin. Thank You for that!

[@ruchibhatt195]

I have been searching topic on mechanical vent. for 3-4 days but didn't get satisfied.. But after watching dis I got impressed and yuppp now I can say DAT its not more complicated... Thnx a lot👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@T.A.N.2024]

awesome - its all essentially quite simple but there arent many people who can keep their explanations simple and logical. thanks. you are a good teacher!

[@stephanielarae]

I'm upgrading to CCT Paramedic, this was brilliant and perfect for what I was needing. Sir, you are fantastic!

[@TheTD1065]

Wow, this was very very clarifying for me! I'm a BSN nursing student headed into an ICU preceptorship. Thank you so much

[@sincityrrt301]

Glad to see RNs here! as an RT I love to see nurses learn about vents, that way we can communicate better :)

[@mily87ful]

sincity RRT home care nurses are more trained with ventilators and other respiratory equipments. Nurses in hospitals get spoiled because they have RTs

[@ibrahimabdullahi5698]

And lose our jobs

[@fahmiramzy5716]

many people know but few can teach thanks

[@lilys9406]

I can't say THANK YOU Enough!!! seriously.... you made what it looked like a very complicated lecture (on paper) very straight forward and understandable. Thank you for taking the time!

[@thecodyjames07]

I have been browsing you tube for a helpful, detailed video. And after A LOT of browsing, lol. I am already liking this 1. I just started watching it. Going back to nursing but doing HH now and will b working w ventilators which I really didn't do. So, thx u.

[@abau85]

So far the best explanation in introduction to mechanical ventilation

[@Kemenyan73]

You are a natural tutor . You can even sell sand to the Arabs . Thats a compliment bro . Keep up the good work

[@zasakaju]

This was great. I am a nursing student and you cleared up a lot of bookwork and incomplete lectures.

[@awharton8701]

Thank you so much for posting. Your lecture was clear and very logical to follow. You really made the concept so much easier to understand. Hope you will continue teaching, as you have a gift for it.

[@6qwertyqwert]

Excellent explanation of ventilator basics in a nutshell. Easy to understand and absorb!!!!

[@liluoke]

bravo! this is a great basic science approach to the basic settings of ventilators. definitely will recommend this video and you in the future!

[@tobym6491]

Thank you so much for very simple ! yet very informative presentation, i my self a med student thousands of miles away from you(Yemen), as a matter of fact i will be having my final ICU exam next wk. you really have a great way of capturing your audiences attention, GOOD LUCK to you, great job :-)

[@nargswhale]

Nursing student here; wow, what an amazing presentation. I learned so much. I am very interested in intubating and vent settings even though most HCF do not allow RN's these privileges. It is still good to know about it. :) Thank you, again!

[@donphillips26]

I'm starting in ITU next week this has been a great help in understanding the basics of mechanical ventilation. Thanks

[@krishomc]

Hi, This class is so good that a graduate medical student can understand about mechanical ventilation. This class really helps and reinforces my knowledge during intervention of ventilator along with ABG correlation. Hope u will continue further.

[@hellojuneau8917]

Read my critical care textbook on this and was slightly lost with all the info. You've definitely made it easier to comprehend thank you :)

[@robynmason8565]

Great teaching. First time I have ever commented on a You Tube video! Thanks so much. I'm a respiratory physiotherapist just looking for a refresher. Just what I was after!

[@siliasaso652]

I have watched this video multiple times since I started as an ICU nurse in May. I love your explanation! Can you do another video on managing alarms and when to change vent settings?

[@christikcrt1]

and maintain job security as well. Plus, this video makes it so easy to understand the process, and obviously, it's Such a great tool for students as well. Not very many non pulmonary physicians can explain ventilation to someone and have them clearly understand as William is doing in this video All and All..This guy is great at teaching! I could say more,but that's a small sum it up of what you were asking If you are an RT then you probably understand where I am coming from.:)

[@LMG1985W]

Great explanation. I'm a nursing student and I was struggling to understand the different types of vents. Thanks Doc.

[@melissafrost1306]

wow ventilators actually make sense now!! Thanks for helping this nursing student out! :)

[@okinrob1743]

We are still recommended to watch this lecture in 2020.

[@sandrarodriguez8045]

Thank you, RN (home health nurse) with ventilator dependent patients!

[@j0hnX44]

If only our RT instructor were as good as you in explaining. Thank you so much!

[@isaurabh84]

Excellent Review! Very clinical and comprehensive.The basic facts that USMLE tests on..thanks!

[@paulpalumbo2566]

Fantastic Video. Excellent analogies and very point to point, top down explanation of settings and potential hazards associated with each setting. Thank you!

[@pamelawilliams3607]

Thanks Bill,Your knowledge of the subject matter is excellent. I don't know which I enjoyed best your teaching method or the way you explained "understanding ventilator settings".. No, really your ability to help me understand what was previously taught to me has increased my understanding of ventilator settings. I assume you are a really good Dr. I am a nurse now starting a job in home care with ventilator dependant patients. I will always consult utube for your educational videos. Keep them coming, brilliant!

[@mitchelleh1]

This video was very helpful for me. I hope to see more from you in the future. Thank you for your time.

[@brigolandy]

It's Steve Jobs talking about medicine. Great presentation!

[@jamesgraves9858]

Thank you very much! I'm in a respiratory program and was having trouble understanding a couple principles and you really clarified them. Thanks so much!

[@michellehetrick8673]

Excellent presentation, thank you! This has helped clear up my confusion and will help in my studies for my exam. You are a great teacher!!

[@joeycrumby9189]

Great Lecture. 30 yr paramedic Learned a lot. THANK YOU!

[@renebender704]

You are the first teacher that explained about the need for nitrogen! Great explanation. But you left out SIMV. Please do a follow up : )

[@rochellebub6221]

Thank you so much. You are amazing. This will really help me on my Nursing Critical Care final today.

[@chelleyS89]

Thank you from a respiratory student in LA!

[@barbbray1588]

Bill, thanks so much for this marvelous video, it REALLY helped me understand ventilators and how they affect our patients. I'm passing it on to some of my classmates.

[@Ztonja]

Nice presentation. Great job of breaking down the settings and explaining them clearly while giving examples.

[@adekamhalimaj8027]

Superb explanation! So easy to understand. This nurse thanks you. May God bless you!

[@ilovearizona]

This really helped correct my misunderstand about this process. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing!! Brilliant explanation!!

[@ednassusi2]

Content delivered like a professor. Thank you

[@maitran7409]

Very helpful video, you explained everything clearly and put everything together so nicely! Loved the Greek mythology analogy as well.

[@tinsonthomastravel]

hi buddy... that was awesome.. being a beginner RN, ur video really helped me to understand the terms, so that i understood how physiologically its related to the prognosis,,,,, really appreciate ur effort to put this up, which is helpful for people like me.. thanks..

[@eminetbegeta4743]

THE BEST TEACHER EVER💯💯 Sir, where are you?? Please pour some Respiratory Therapy knowledge 🙏🏽 May God keep you safe🙏🏽🙏🏽 Thank You🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@novu16]

man this was awesome, noticed people who really know their stuffs not just memorize things spent so much time thinking they go bald

[@megalith100]

You explained it in a superb way! You are such a gift! Thank you very much for this video :)

[@Gurpartap62]

Totally Agree with U* :) M a 2nd year Nursing student and wanted to learn about the vent. settings..William cleared all concepts ... :)

[@vesaliusnotdead]

Excellent video. I hope you continue helping as you did with this presentation. Many thanks!

[@allandchan]

Fantastic video! Thank you so much for posting this. You explained everything very coherently and concisely.

[@folic9]

Thank you so much for covering this topic. You guys did such a great job explaining these concepts. I learned so much.

[@alishacornacchia5431]

for a nursing student like myself who has zero experience in the field, besides clinical, this was extremely helpful. You didn't assume we would know the basics already and explain things too fast, and you were extremely clear with your explanations. Your slides were easy to follow also. I've watched 4 other videos and yours was the easiest to understand. Can't thank you enough. Do you have any other videos on respirations? ABG'S?

[@christikcrt1]

Depending on where you work, Sometimes there may be a few months that goes by and you haven't been scheduled to work in the ICU. Then one day, BAM, you're taking care of 5 patients on life support. I have quite a bit of experience, so I don't usually have a problem when thrown into a new area of care that I may not have been working in for awhile, but, others that may be new or may have been doing PFT's etc. for several months.We always want to maintain the trust of the person giving us orders.

[@missingtk]

You are an AWESOME teacher! I really learned a lot from this video. If I can ask you something though, please add the values considered "high" or "low" for each setting in your next video, that's the one thing I missed in your lecture...

[@Ezekielkok]

thank you sir for allowing me to understand the ventilator settings. from Singapore

[@jotgondenik]

Great efforts mate.. you've made it all simple and smooth.. and immense helpful to the beginners. Thank you.

[@tigroid]

I highly appreciate you. Congratulate your efforts. Thank you from Turkey.Dr.Güngör BAYBOĞA Pediatrician.

[@Dr3ux21]

fantastic! explaining the mechanics of everything really helped it stick. looking forward to more videos

[@dayanasanchezviens4083]

Tutorial was incredibly well explained, thank you. Please keep posting videos :)

[@brendaanderson4084]

Extremely helpful. Thank you. Passed it along to entire RN class.

[@dushyantx]

His Teaching is So beautiful, it brings tears to my eyes :)

[@Zee052785]

This was very helpful and informative for an ICU RN looking to expand her knowledge about vents.

[@christyb4805]

Absolutely best explanation of vent settings. Great video, thank you

[@rachelcondren4059]

Great video I have learned so much from it I will be watching it again and again. Thank you for taking the time to do it.

[@margaretprawl313]
