Learning objectives

To understand the principles of mechanical ventilation, including its roles, functions, and its management in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU).
Distinguish between the different modes of mechanical ventilation and demonstrate the ability to select the most appropriate mode for different clinical scenarios in pediatric practice.
Gain proficiency in interpreting ventilator graphics and waveforms, and recognize deviations from normal, leading to timely identification and rectification of problems.
Understand the potential complications and side-effects associated with mechanical ventilation in children such as ventilation-induced lung injury and learn how to mitigate these risks.
Develop the ability to efficiently wean pediatric patients from mechanical ventilation, understanding the process and criteria for ventilator discontinuation.
