On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Bulbar issues frequently impact the care of patients who are being ventilated. Careful assessment and management of swallowing and laryngeal function will affect weaning decisions, extubation success and patients’ experience whilst on ITU. We will consider how and when to deliver targeted assessments and interventions that seek to minimise the impact of bulbar dysfunction. We will discuss how strategies to optimise patients’ ability to verbally communicate whilst being ventilated can be implemented, and the contribution of these strategies to weaning success.
