You can’t control what comes into your ED, but you can prepare for it.
Take your ventilator management skills to the next level with the AVLS-EM Workshop—a focused training experience designed for ED nurses, physicians, respiratory therapists, paramedics, and other clinicians who care for critically ill ventilated patients in the emergency department.
This program combines foundational learning with scenario-driven, hands-on training to help ED teams build real-world competency in the early recognition, initiation, optimization, and troubleshooting of mechanical ventilation.
8-hour Online BVLS Course (required prerequisite)
2-Day (16-hours) Hands-On Workshop
Dual Certification: BVLS + AVLS-ED
Up to 24 hours of continuing education credits
Initial ventilator setup in the emergency department
Tidal volume, respiratory rate, PEEP, FiO₂, and minute ventilation selection
Rapid recognition and correction of ventilator problems
Waveform interpretation and bedside troubleshooting
Management of ARDS, COPD, asthma, and complex respiratory failure
Noninvasive ventilation decision-making and failure recognition
Preventing ventilator-induced harm before ICU admission
Team-based management of the deteriorating ventilated patient
And so much more.
