About the show
I'm Nicholas Ghionni, a pulmonary and critical care physician with a passion for making mechanical ventilation easier to understand. Whether you're an EMT, nurse, respiratory therapist, APP, resident, fellow, attending, or simply someone who loves critical care physiology, this podcast is for you.
My goal is simple: break down complex ventilator concepts into practical, understandable lessons you can apply at the bedside.
