Assemblies on Nursing; Critical Care
8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. MOSCONE CENTER
Room 2024 (West Building, Level 2)
Target Audience
Advanced practice providers including nurse practitioners (NP) and physician
assistants (PA) who work in critical care, NP and PA students, and critical
care nurses.
Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, the participant will be able to:
• evaluate and manage patients with critical illness, including acute respiratory
failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome, shock, sepsis, and nosocomial
infections;
• develop a systematic approach to chest radiograph interpretation, arterial blood
gas interpretation, and mechanical ventilation troubleshooting;
• describe a basic approach to the use of sedation and analgesia in the intensive
care unit, including methods of assessment for sedation and delirium.
This postgraduate course is designed for advanced practice providers and is
comprised of nine 45-minute sessions on core critical care topics. The talks will have
a focus on evidence-based management of commonly encountered conditions such
as acute respiratory failure, shock, sepsis, and nosocomial infections. Skill based
sessions on chest radiograph interpretation, arterial blood gas interpretation, and
mechanical ventilation troubleshooting will be included. Sessions will be designed to
be interactive and case-based, with opportunities for breakout sessions and
team-based problem solving.

THE PHYSIOLOGY OF PEDIATRIC RESPIRATORY
FAILURE
Pre-registration and additional fees required. Continental breakfast and
box lunch included. Attendance is limited.
Member: $350 In-Training Member: $200
Non-Member: $425 In-Training Non-Member: $300
Registrants must bring a laptop to the
course to view the course material.
Assemblies on Pediatrics; Clinical Problems; Critical Care; Pulmonary
Circulation; Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology; Respiratory
Structure and Function
8:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. MOSCONE CENTER
Room 3014 (West Building, Level 3)
Target Audience
Fellows in training as well as established physicians in the practice of pediatric
pulmonology, critical care or neonatal medicine who are interested in
reviewing basic physiology principles as they apply to clinical care.
Objectives
At the conclusion of this session, the participant will be able to:
• apply several basic respiratory principles to the diagnosis and management
of children with respiratory failure;
• learn how physiologic measurements can be used to change interventions
and enhance outcomes;
• identify the rationale for several measurement techniques and determine
when these should be used.
The course will consist of a series of grouped lectures covering several topics in
pediatric respiratory physiology, using respiratory failure as the unifying theme.
The talks will review both normal physiological principles of a clinically important
topic and the pathophysiology that leads to the particular problem being
discussed. In addition, the physiology of several different forms of mechanical
ventilation will be reviewed, and important distinctions in the underlying normal
and abnormal physiological processes leading to respiratory failure between
neonates, children and adults will be highlighted. An interactive format, using
questions from the speakers and audience touch pads to give answers will be
used to enhance audience participation, and to allow the participant to understand
key concepts or to identify areas requiring additional study.
