Session date: May 22, 2023
This session will provide state of the art, evidence based guidance on the optimal management of patients with ventilator dependent respiratory disorders. Objectives are to ensure understanding of the evidence based use of NIV, IMV, cough augmentation and sputum mobilization options in advanced lung disease to maintain quality of life, with a focus on maintaining community participation. Optimizing evidence based respiratory assistive device adaptations to continue appropriate ventilation and airway clearance while out of the home. Specific situations that will be addressed will be sports participation (skiing, hockey), camping and day and multi-day travel. Patient and family panelists will provide expert experiential guidance.

• Develop competency in guideline based implementation of assisted NIV and IMV in advanced lung disease
• Develop competency in airway clearance modalities in advanced lung disease
• Adapt above competencies to multiple different community engagement models (school participation, sports, travel and camping) . Review of environment specific needs/adaptations for effective device function
