Experiencing ventilator modes and weaning parameters firsthand improves understanding and management of ventilated patients. This hands-on approach enhances empathy for patient discomfort and agitation, leading to better care.

Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Respiratory Therapy
  • Critical Care Nursing

Background:

  • Ventilator management and weaning are complex skills.
  • Traditional memorization may not fully prepare clinicians for patient care.
  • Understanding patient discomfort is crucial for effective management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of a hands-on simulation for teaching ventilator concepts.
  • To assess the impact of experiential learning on clinicians' understanding and empathy.
  • To determine if simulation improves care for agitated, intubated patients.

Main Methods:

  • Participants engaged in hands-on simulation of ventilator modes and weaning parameters.
  • Qualitative feedback was collected on their learning experience and perceived changes in practice.

  • Tolerance to positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) was noted.

    • Main Results:

    • Experiential learning significantly improved understanding and management of ventilated patients.
    • Participants reported increased empathy for patient discomfort and agitation.
    • Simulation was perceived as an effective, cost-effective, and time-efficient teaching tool.

    Conclusions:

    • Hands-on ventilator simulation is an effective educational strategy.
    • It enhances clinical understanding, empathy, and patient care skills.
    • This method improves the ability to manage anxious, intubated patients.
