Description
This podcast is going to dive into the topic of TIME CONSTANT. Have you ever wondered how we truly determine the exhalation time for our ventilator patients? Time Constant is the concept that guides our care and determines the time needed for proper alveolar filling or emptying. We couple this podcast with a downloadable worksheet for practice that can be found in the show notes on the FlightBridgeED website under this podcast. The worksheet gives calculation examples, practice questions, and answers to check your work. I promise this podcast will challenge you, bring insight on problems you've encountered in the transport environment and ultimately give you new tools that will make you better as a clinician. We couldn’t make this podcast without. Please rate, and review wherever you download the podcast. Thanks for listening!
