Respiratory Physiology & Manual Ventilation

Why mastering manual ventilation matters for veterinary nurses

When a mechanical ventilator isn’t available, the ability to perform manual ventilation confidently can be life-saving in veterinary practice.

Discover how to recognise and prevent complications such as hypoventilation, altered lung volume, and atelectasis, and understand how these can lead to hypoxaemia and hypercapnia. Through Caroline’s expert explanations and video demonstrations, you’ll learn correct ventilation techniques and how to confidently use the adjustable pressure-limiting (APL) valve to keep your patients safe under anaesthesia.

What attendees say

Absolutely loved it. Caroline has a wealth of knowledge & fantastic educator. Amazing to see all she has achieved with her vet nursing throughout the world & the avenues she's taken - gives great insight for what this profession can lead to.

Watching the recorded webinar again, plus the notes helped a lot. I was able to review what was discussed and finish my notes. I also enjoyed the quiz after. 

It was a good course, manual ventilation is something that always makes me nervous, so it was great to delve deeper into understanding and perfecting it! I appreciate the opportunity for continuous professional development.
