In this hour-long lecture, Dr. Analia Graziano, a pediatric intensivist, reviews various pictures and infographics that are commonly seen in critical care boards. She starts by discussing capnography and the different phases of the capnograph waveform. She then moves on to flow-volume loops and describes the different abnormalities that can be seen in patients with airway obstruction. Dr. Graziano also explains how to set up and interpret intravascular pressure monitoring systems. She goes over the components of the system, the importance of zeroing and leveling, and explains how to interpret arterial and central venous pressure waveforms. Next, she covers various arrhythmias and EKG findings. She discusses the different types of AV blocks, SVT, ventricular fibrillation, and long QT syndrome.
