OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Special Issues Regarding Mechanical Ventilation in Neurologically Injured Patients
This seminar will be held online via Zoom. Please register to receive Zoom link: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/148773761325
Mechanical ventilation in neurologically injured patients presents a number of unique challenges. Patients who are intubated due to a primary neurologic injury often experience respiratory phenomena secondary to that injury, including elevation of intracranial pressure (ICP) in response to mechanical ventilation and variations in respiratory patterns. We will examine the consequences of ventilator management as they relate to parameters that affect extubation, ICP, and brain oxygenation in patients who have neurologic injury. These problems often require unique ventilator strategies that are designed to minimize the impact of the ventilator on ICP and brain oxygenation, and allow for appropriate liberation from the ventilator.
