Impact of Simulation-based Mastery Learning on Resident Skill Managing Mechanical Ventilators

open access: yesATS Scholar, 2020
Background: Caring for patients requiring mechanical ventilation is complex, and residents may lack adequate skill for managing these patients. Simulation-based mastery learning (SBML) is an educational model that trains clinicians to a high standard and

Mechanical ventilation of mice [PDF]

open access: yesBasic Research in Cardiology, 2000
Due to growing interest in murine functional genomics research, there is an increasing need for physiological stable in vivo murine models. Of special importance is support and control of ventilation by artificial respiration, which is difficult to execute as a consequence of the small size of the animal and the technically demanding breathing pattern.
