Lecture Series - Little Lungs, Big Decisions: Navigating Acute Paediatric Respiratory Care
This lecture series will focus on physiotherapy assessment and treatment of acute respiratory presentations commonly and not so commonly seen in the paediatric setting.
Attendees will build their knowledge to support management of respiratory physiotherapy referrals in hospital, including key considerations for escalation and early supportive strategies to use in this patient population.
This is Part 2, of 2, of the Lecture Series.
Lecture 2 will build on the knowledge and skills developed in Lecture 1, applying them to children with severe neurological impairment and neuromuscular disorders. Although less commonly encountered in peripheral settings, these presentations involve significant complexity due to associated co-morbidities, requiring a more advanced and nuanced approach to respiratory assessment and management.
Intended audience:
- Physiotherapists that work in an acute paediatric environment
- Experienced clinicians working in an acute environment with limited paediatric exposure
- Clinicians working with children with neuro-disability and complex care needs in the community, who may be supporting these children and families in managing a subacute respiratory illness
Please join us at The Royal Children's Hospital for an opportunity to connect with peers and to engage in valuable discussion.
Refreshments and networking from 5.30pm.
