Episode 6 - Acute Respiratory Failure II: Recognition, Management & Oxygen Therapies

This episode follows-up on Episode 1 and focuses on the assessment and initial treatment of patients with acute respiratory failure. Through a focused clinical exam, we can identify signs of increased work of breathing which should alert us to the need for support in the form of oxygen and ventilatory therapies. The 3 major types of oxygen delivery systems are also discussed including low- and high-flow, as well as reservoir systems.
