RT Magazine’s free webinar on ARDS & Ventilation in the ICU is now available for on-demand viewing.
At an estimated hospital cost of over $125,000 per patient, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in intensive care units.
In this webinar, industry experts discussed:
- Steps for RTs to better identify at-risk ARDS patients in the emergency department,
- The benefits of advanced pressure release ventilation (APRV),
- How to prevent ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) for ARDS patients,
- and successful interventions to reduce ARDS mortality.
This webinar is generously sponsored by Dräger.

Are there any CEU’s with this Webinar?
Thanks
Hi Rhonda, there are no CEUs attached to this webinar but I hope you still join us for an important discussion on ARDS. Thanks!
Will the March 28th webinar be recorded and if possible sent to me.
I ask only because I’m working and don’t want to miss it.
Hi, yes the webinar is recorded and will be accessible on-demand any time after the live event. Same registration page, you’ll receive an email with a link to view the event, which can be opened at your convenience. Thanks.

I can’t seem to access the webinar. I’ve registered, but when I get to the lobby page, it doesn’t open the program. My computer passed all the tests.
Great Webinar today, hopefully in future someone could apply for CRCE’s for its participants. I did gain valuable information, would just be nice to grab some CRCE’s while at it!
