Appendix Terminology by Ventilator Type

Key contents by part

- Part 1
Before learning artificial respiration, this book contains information to help you understand the normal breathing process.
- Part 2
We will learn about the indications for patients requiring ventilators and various methods of maintaining the airway, and cover the basic structure and operation of each type of ventilator.
- Part 3
This book covers the most commonly used ventilator modes and monitoring elements for each mode, how to respond to frequently occurring alarms, how to respond to emergencies in patients receiving ventilators, and how to prevent complications.
- Part 4
It contains the criteria for discontinuing ventilator treatment and patient care after discontinuation.

I recommend this in this situation.

- A new nurse about to enter the intensive care unit
- 2nd to 3rd year nurses who want to master ventilators
- Prospective preceptors who need ventilator nursing training materials
- Experienced nurse transferred to the intensive care unit
- All nurses caring for patients with ventilators
