I am a middle aged primary care doc who does hospital work and hasn't messed with a vent in 7 years and even then only with pulmonary backup. I'm thinking I need to brush up in the current environment, and holy moly I wish this kind of video material was available to me when I learned it the first time. Thanks for the content.
Again, this whole series is great for the paramedic looking to critical care transport. If one does not get it the first time, watch it again. All this shows up in the flight and ground transport setting with our patients on the ventilator. Thank you, again!
I'm Renal Haemodialysis Nurse and often dialysed an acute haemodialysis patient in ICU and your explanations slowly help me to understand how ventilation works. Every time I sit in ICU doing dialysis, I'm always curious to look the ICU ventilation monitor specially those renal patients on APO.
Thank you so much Medcram. I went through a whole term without ever fully understanding what my busy and seemingly hurrying lecturer was saying, but you’ve brought everything to life with your simplified terms. Thank you 😊🏃🏻♀️. I am ready to run with brighter knowledge 📒
I should really thank you for your great effort to make us understand it in a very simplified but highly organised and outstanding way... U really made it... Thank you
I love how you explain ventilation. I'm in my first year of Respiratory classes. Your are helping me. Thank you! Our next lecture in class will be on wave forms and modes. We just finished with classifications of mechanical ventilation. I will definitely continue to listen to your lectures! Thank you
You are absolutely right, this IS mechanical ventilation explained clearly. I am in school for Respiratory Therapy and currently on mechanical ventilation. This helps out a great deal...Thank You!!!!
this is fantastic! i have recently started in ICU (4 shifts into it ;-() and the sister always asks questions, which makes me feel a bit stupid... so now at least i have a basic understanding of certain values!!! Thank you very much!! xx
Love these lectures. Helps me to understand the vents better and assist the RT with management. I am an RN, but unless I'm in the ICU (and even when I am, sometimes!), the RT's DO NOT like for me to assist them with the vent management. Now, I can at least clue myself in to what's happening more with my patient. Thanks!!!
Im currently a biomed engineer for ventilators, used in neonathal care. Really had a hard time understanding, different modes. This is so easy to understand, thanks.
Thank you! Brilliant explanation, I'm able to understand clearly now how ventilation helps my 6 month old baby fights off pneumonia, thanks for the knowledge sharing.
See the whole series at www.medcram.com along with other top quality videos including reviews in pulmonary, cardiology, infectious disease, and hematology!
Ninja Panda in CHF there is fluid in the lungs. PEEP is the amount of pressure left in the lungs after you take a breath. In a CHF patient you would want to push the fluid back into the body. So increasing the PEEP (the pressure) would help in keeping that fluid in the body not the lungs and also keep the lungs open for oxygen change.
Very nice lecture, just one comment; When graphing out your exhalation and pressure returns to set PEEP, corresponding volume will not return to zero. With PEEP set there will be a volume that remains in the pulmonary system
Great videos, information and presentation. I have watched them all-several times! Just an FYI, on some of your mechanical ventilation videos, you use mmHg when referring to ventilator pressures. It is usually measure and displayed in cmH20.
Great video!!! I have one doubt though: it's still not completely clear to me why high peep benefits patients with congestive heart failure. Anyone mind explaining?
Subscribed, activated the bell and liked the video. Lecture topic - please do videos covering anesthesia/ICU/lung and haemodynamic topics of what you havent covered in your videos yet. Thank you.
Now If I could instantly remember all these Vent lectures if and when I was on the Covid -19 floor with all these vents going....I could jump in and lend a hand tommorrow ! LOL... But thank you so much for all the visual clarity and at least I have the feeling that in an extreme situation, where I had no experienced back ups, -I would have a fighting chance of succeeding. Thank you again.
Watch the 5 part series every morning before you head out. Watch them all again before bedtime for good measure and you never know when emergency strikes!
Rajin Aziz Maahi I finally figured it out: Airway Pressure = Resistance of airways + Pressure in the alveoli The peak pressure is a measure of both of those things (resistance plus alveolar pressure). But when you hold your breath, you take away the resistance pressure and you’re left with just the alveolar pressure. This is why there’s a drop - you’re no longer adding in all that pressure to bring the air in, it’s already there. So, the difference between peak pressure and plateau pressure would be your airway resistance. And the plateau pressure would help you measure how compliant the alveoli are.

It takes great knowledge to explain complicated thigs so simple and understanding. Great work.
I’m a Respiratory Therapy student and benefited from you lectures greatly Dr. Seheult! Thank you so much!
You're welcome!

I’m an RT student starting Mechanical Ventilation this semester. And I have to say that your videos are gems. Thank you
11:30 The visual skill of explaining is most adorable. Thanks for sharing so much knowledge!
We have teachers who know a lot but are unable to explain clearly. Wish they could be as simple and direct as you are!
Thank you ! I’ve learned more from your videos than I have from 2 ICU textbooks

wow first time ventilators actually makes sense! thank you for the clear explanations
I just want to tell you how much I appreciate you. Seriously, you are an excellent educator!
AMAZING SIMPLICITY AND SO WELL DONE. A GIFTED EDUCATOR.
Excellent video. Thanks for time and effort put into these.
I really like these videos. My kind of learning style with diagrams and explanations. Thank you.

+vldotson44 Thanks for the comment
I am a biomedical engineer, but your videos are making become an engineer AND a RT!
You are absolutely right, this IS mechanical ventilation explained clearly. I am in school for Respiratory Therapy and currently on mechanical ventilation. This helps out a great deal...Thank You!!!!
Tracye Walker Good to hear- thank you
Amazing, greetings from Brazil and University of Rio de Janeiro!
this is fantastic! i have recently started in ICU (4 shifts into it ;-() and the sister always asks questions, which makes me feel a bit stupid... so now at least i have a basic understanding of certain values!!! Thank you very much!! xx
What a wonderful and clear presentation!
Thank a lot for helping understand ventilation. New to ICU and this is helpful.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR EXCELLENT LECTURE . INFACT THIS IS THE BEST LECTURE ON VENTILATION I HAVE EVER HEARD IN JUST SO SIMPLE WAY. THANK YOU AGAIN

Second year peds resident that is aiming to go into Peds Critical care. This is great to see during my PICU rotation. :)
+metalmilitia89 Good to hear- best wishes with the rotation
Thank you! Brilliant explanation, I'm able to understand clearly now how ventilation helps my 6 month old baby fights off pneumonia, thanks for the knowledge sharing.
I can't thank you enough, you explained a lot of "peeping" nights in our ICU :D now I know why that machine has been peeping all the time

YOUR LOGIC EXPALANTIONS ARE AMAZING ,IMPRESSIVE THANKS
Great explanation helps with my critical care course on ventilator ops and management
Incredibly helpful, thank you!
After watching your lecture, I am grateful to you
tank you very much for such educative teaching on ventitator
This is amazing teaching and I’m understanding it thank you so much for the charts
I m from India.. Thank u sooo much sir for this lecture.. I m getting lots of knowledge..
Salute,Thanks & congratulations for art of teaching and dedication.
Can someone elaborate on the point that increasing the PEEP helped in some cases of CHF? I don't really understand his explanation

+1fineRT You are correct- Thank you for catching this. We'll add annotations to the videos.
Thank you, really like these videos. My kind of learning style with diagrams and explanations.
amazingly simple and clear
Thank you so much for explaining about vents in a simple way.
Thank you so much for this!! It was a great explanation of the Peak and Plateau pressures. Would a PE be a cause in increased plateau pressures?
God! You’re such a good in explanation. Great thanks for you from Russian future anesthesiologist 👏🏼🙏🏼
Your lectures are super helpful. Thank you
I have been an engineer for 35 years, this stuff is much more interesting than engineering.
Nicely explained. A good resource video for nurses starting in ICU
excellent lecture! but i didnot understand how increase in peep improves lung aeration in congestive heart failure--thanks
Very well described about various aspects of mechanical ventilation sir
Thanks for helping me understand how vents can decrease venous return and Cardiac output!
Absolutely, thank you for the feedback
Great video!!!
I have one doubt though: it's still not completely clear to me why high peep benefits patients with congestive heart failure. Anyone mind explaining?
Thank you
Great lecture as usual
Excellent videos! Thanks!
Thank you so so much. Plz continue to make more videos. They are so helpful.
Glad to hear! Thanks!
Great demonstration again. Thanks.
Love your lectures sir. Can you do something on more special modalities like the VDR, INO or HFOV for a young RT like myself?
jsolis19 Thanks- we will try to do more RT and pulmonary lectures.
Subscribed, activated the bell and liked the video.
Lecture topic - please do videos covering anesthesia/ICU/lung and haemodynamic topics of what you havent covered in your videos yet. Thank you.

Great lectures, thanks!
Excellent tutorial
Talented lecturer
Simple and well illustrated.
Milind Bapat Thanks for the feedback
great series, thank you...
Why does PIP increase when Pplat increases?...whats the relation?
Great lecture, as usual. One question: so pulmonary edema couldn’t affect the peak pressure, as well?
Now If I could instantly remember all these Vent lectures if and when I was on the Covid -19 floor with all these vents going....I could jump in and lend a hand tommorrow ! LOL... But thank you so much for all the visual clarity and at least I have the feeling that in an extreme situation, where I had no experienced back ups, -I would have a fighting chance of succeeding.

this is very clearly explained thank you
Thank you so much for the simplicity in this. Needed this
This is incredible! Thank u sir!
Wonderful!! Thank you so much
Thank you ver much🙏
wishing you blessings peace and joys, for you have helped me very much, by explaining it wonderfully..keep it up.
thanks a lot sir very well explained
I still dont understand why there is a drop in pressure after the peak pressure (and prior to the plateu pressure) during the breath hold...
Rajin Aziz Maahi I finally figured it out:
Airway Pressure = Resistance of airways + Pressure in the alveoli
The peak pressure is a measure of both of those things (resistance plus alveolar pressure). But when you hold your breath, you take away the resistance pressure and you’re left with just the alveolar pressure. This is why there’s a drop - you’re no longer adding in all that pressure to bring the air in, it’s already there.
So, the difference between peak pressure and plateau pressure would be your airway resistance. And the plateau pressure would help you measure how compliant the alveoli are.
