vent management for the clueless

[fastosprintini]

our pp anesthesiology group was asked by the hospital to help with ventmanagement in an 18 bed icu while they are getting some new intensivists hired/credentialed.
it will be well compensated and would be a smart political move on our part to help the hospital out. what would be a short text/guidelines for us to review and have in the coat pocket?
"ventmanagement for dummies" , so to speak...
any suggestions?

thank you , fasto

Are you looking for vent management for the anesthesia docs or to give the other docs on the case as a here, don't bother me until you've read this and given it a whirl?

That came out more crotchety sounding than I intended. If you let us know the needed use, we may better point you in the right direction
