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.
