HMV Webinar Series
The Home Mechanical Ventilation Assembly presents the HMV Webinar Series featuring presentations that aim to support clinicians managing patients requiring long-term home ventilatory support.
Curated by the Home Mechanical Ventilation Assembly co-chairs, Marta Kaminska and Sherri Katz, the individual webinars aim to provide an understanding of the clinical course of a patient with progressive neuromuscular disease developing chronic respiratory failure; develop an approach to evaluating patients and initiating NIV in different settings; troubleshoot NIV emergencies and alarms; understand tools for ambulatory monitoring; and, interpret ventilator download data.
In most cases the same topics are covered separately from pediatric and adult respirologist perspectives.
