Have advice on hand for the most complicated situationsKnow the right strategies at all timesMake accurate calculations for oxygenation or failure factors.The cosmos is what it is, or what it was or what it will be. Thus began the mythical series "Cosmos". The goal of Cosmos was simply to reveal science to us in an affordable way. The ventila project was born with the same spirit. The very name of the project, Ventilate, like Cosmos, refers us to the content.The Ventila project focuses on respiratory support for patients with acute respiratory failure. It will start with the basic concepts of acute respiratory failure and mechanical ventilation, we will continue looking at when is the right time to start respiratory support and how we should do it. We will look at the masks and tubing. We will discover the different types of respirators and end with a reflection on what has happened to us with the COVID-19 pandemic.
