ONLINE LECTURE SERIES CONTENT
Session 1: Dealing with the Obvious Respiratory distress is very uncomfortable and potentially life-threatening. Prompt recognition and targeted therapy are key to a successful outcome. While it’s obvious that patients are compromised, identifying and treating the exact cause(s) can make the difference between life and death. This session will cover clinically relevant aspects of pulmonary physiology, respiratory distress recognition/triage, and blood gas analysis.
Session 2: Treatment of Respiratory Distress – From the Essentials to the Advanced…
In this session we will discuss the practical management of patients with respiratory distress. We will review essential, potentially lifesaving techniques such as oxygen therapy, thoracocenteses and dive into mechanical ventilation, an advanced but underused salvage procedure.
Dr. Hoareau graduated from the Toulouse National Veterinary School. He is board-certified by the American and European Colleges of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care. He completed his residency at the University of California-Davis. He obtained a Ph.D. from the same institution in collaboration with the US Air Force. He also completed a post-doctoral research fellowship with the Oak Ridge Institute for Science and Education in partnership with the US Air Force.
He currently serves as an Assistant Professor with the Emergency Medicine Division at the University of Utah, School of Medicine. Dr. Hoareau is an investigator at the Nora Eccles Cardiovascular Research Training Institute. His research focuses on mitigating ischemia-reperfusion following hemorrhagic shock and cardiac arrest with a special interest in resuscitative endovascular balloon occlusion of the aorta and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. His benchtop interest revolves around evaluating mitochondrial injury. Dr. Hoareau continues to care for critically ill animals in specialty hospitals in the Salt Lake City area.
