The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio Division of Respiratory Care is hosting a virtual symposium Nov. 2–3.

Twelve continuing education credits are available at the event, including one hour each on the topics of ethics and human trafficking.

Titled “Thriving Together,” the symposium will feature speakers including national and international experts from hospitals, universities and industry. Topics addressed will include current methods, including mechanical ventilation, lung protective strategies, tracheostomy care, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), human trafficking, ethics, non-invasive ventilation, and volume diffusive respirator (VDR) management. 

“It has never been more important that respiratory care practitioners master the latest evidence and techniques to provide excellent patient care,” said Program Chair and Associate Professor Richard Wettstein, MMEd, RRT, FAARC, FCCP. “This symposium provides world class guidance so we can thrive together.“
