Event Description

This high-fidelity simulation is designed to strengthen clinical judgment, reinforce respiratory assessment skills, and promote safe, evidence-based interventions. During this simulation, participants will: Interpret arterial blood gas (ABG) results to guide clinical decision-making Administer and evaluate the effectiveness of respiratory medications Select and manage appropriate oxygen therapy modalities (e.g., nasal cannula, Venturi mask, non-rebreather) based on patient status Provide patient education on COPD management, inhaler use, breathing techniques, and lifestyle modifications Collaborate in a team-based setting to prioritize care and respond to changes in patient condition This simulation offers a safe space to apply critical thinking, refine hands-on skills, and build confidence in managing complex respiratory cases.

Objectives

  1. Interpret and apply arterial blood gas (ABG) results to assess respiratory status and guide clinical interventions for a patient with COPD.
  2. Demonstrate safe and effective administration of respiratory medications and selection of appropriate oxygen therapy modalities based on patient condition and evidence-based guidelines.
  3. Provide patient-centered education on COPD self-management strategies, including inhaler use, breathing techniques, and lifestyle modifications to promote long-term respiratory health.
