Courses

This in-person spirometry course teaches you to perform tests safely and accurately, covering equipment setup, infection control, risk management, and error recognition. With hands-on practice, you’ll focus on achieving technical acceptability to improve patient care.

Suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners, you can choose between ‘perform only’ or ‘perform and interpret’. The ‘perform only’ option is a 5 hour course, those opting to include interpretation will benefit from an additional 2-hour workshop.

All participants receive 3 months of remote support to assist with spirometry practice or completing the ARTP registration.

This online course is designed for those who would already have a grasp of spirometry interpretation and need a refresher.

Together, we will interpret real-life spirometry results to give you an up-to-date crash course in spirometry interpretation using the gold standard z-scores/SRs (you won’t find predicted values here!).

This online course covers the anatomical structures of the lungs and the pathway of air through them. It also examines the fundamentals of pulmonary circulation and gas transport, with an introduction to how the nervous system regulates breathing.

An in-depth online course focused on the pathophysiology of respiratory diseases, including topics such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and interstitial lung disease (ILD). Develop a solid understanding of underlying mechanisms and learn why specific clinical symptoms present.

This ECG essentials course is perfect for healthcare professionals wanting to develop or refresh their ECG interpretation skills.

This course is a 2 hour webinar containing guided ECG examples and case-based practice!

Learning outcomes:

1) Apply a structured approach to the initial assessment of an adult 12-lead ECG.

2) Recognise sinus rhythms, AF, atrial flutter and common ectopics.

3) Differentiate first-, second- and third-degree AV block and identify findings requiring prompt escalation.

In this online webinar you will explore fundamental concepts, practical applications, and clinical decision-making, equipping you with skills needed to effectively manage patients on non-invasive ventilation. Using a case-based approach you will discuss important components to a successful NIV treatment and positive patient outcomes.

This course is super interactive and fun!

This 2 hour webinar is suitable for clinicians with a working knowledge of systematic 12-lead ECG interpretation.

Learning outcomes:

1) Recognise right and left bundle branch block using QRS morphology.

2) Identify ECG patterns of ischaemia and infarction and relate changes to coronary territories.

3) Recognise reciprocal, posterior and right ventricular patterns and limitations requiring serial ECGs or urgent review.

This 2 hour webinar is suitable for nurses, AHP and other healthcare professionals seeking an applied heart failure update.

Learning outcomes:

1) Explain the mechanisms underlying reduced-, mildly reduced- and preserved-ejection-fraction heart failure.

2) Relate congestion, reduced perfusion and left- or right-sided dysfunction to clinical findings.

3) Describe the roles of ECG, natriuretic peptides and echocardiography and recognise deterioration requiring escalation.
