Improved acute NIV delivery

A new elearning programme has been developed to help improve the delivery of acute non-invasive ventilation (NIV).

In addition to improving the delivery of acute NIV care the programme, which elfh has developed in partnership with Kent Surrey Sussex Academic Health Science Network, also aims to reduce mortality and promote patient safety by encouraging better adherence to guidelines. The elearning standardises and improves the competencies of healthcare professionals involved in the provision of acute NIV care by creating new NIV training material and establishing and monitoring its delivery.

The elearning programme also includes a guidance document on practical acute NIV which details the competency assessment for the practical session, a guide to completion of the practical session and case studies and supplementing documentation.
