Dates & Deadlines

We are excited to announce our first Interactive Resident Rounds session for next Wednesday, January 13, 2021, at 12pm EST. Dr. Erin Binagia will be presenting an interactive Q&A style discussion on Mechanical Ventilator Waveform Analysis. Dr. Laura Cole will be helping to facilitate the rounds. In preparation for rounds, several resources have been recommended below. These are also excellent materials for additional review and study. A practice quiz will also be made available for after rounds to test your understanding.
