Listen to an important report by Pr. Luciano Gattinoni on managing critical parameters of ventilatory support for COVID-19 patients. As a researcher and a mentor to clinicians across Europe, Pr. Gattinoni has a unique, comprehensive perspective on COVID-19 care. In this webinar of April 9, 2020, he shares his observations of the disease as well as criteria on when to ventilate a COVID-19 patient.

His research focuses on the pathophysiology and treatment of acute respiratory failure, sepsis, and acid base disorders. He has published more than 400 research articles in peer-reviewed journals. He is Honorary Member of the German Society of Anesthesiology and Intensive Care, Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, and was awarded with the Life Time Achievement Award by the American Society of Anesthesiology, the American Society of Critical Care Medicine and the European Society of Intensive Care and the French Society of Intensive Care.
