PHYSIOTHERAPY SKILLS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF THE CRITICAL CARE PATIENT
VinSIM - An Immersive Simulation Course
Thursday 15th and Friday 16th of May 2025
The course is ideal for recent graduates or those with limited ICU experience and will cover management of the haemodynamically unstable patient, general assessment of the ICU patient, early rehabilitation and cardiorespiratory management of the long-stay ICU patient.
This two day course combines small group skills sessions and immersive simulation sessions to allow participants to practice suctioning, tracheostomy care, ECG interpretation, invasive and non-invasive ventilation and early rehabilitation.
At St Vincent’s we use a SimMan 3G patient simulator mannequin, a life-like computer driven mannequin with responses that can mimic a real patient, thus creating a high-fidelity environment for your learning. Our mannequin “Manny Quinn” has palpable pulses, breath sounds, chest excursion, a patent airway and utilises real physiological clinical monitors.
