ANZICS would like to announce the next episode of Meet the Experts Podcast series – COVID-19 Special.
COVID -19 has a very unique pattern and it has challenged the dogmatic approach of mechanical ventilation described for ARDS patients. In this podcast, Dr Swapnil Pawar talks in-depth with Prof Luciano Gattinoni about the pathophysiology of the disease and how we should ventilate these patients. His key messages are monitor closely, identify the right phenotype, be patient and do not apply blanket protocols for mechanical ventilation.
