The rest of the session focuses on nursing care of the ventilated patient: hand hygiene, eye and mouth care, positioning and physiotherapy, ET tube suction and cuff care, bladder and bowel care, lines and drains, nutrition and arterial lines. It finishes with the risks of ventilation, including the effects on the cardiovascular system, ventilator induced lung injury, and how to prevent ventilator associated pneumonia.
