    Brilliant! This course has helped me tremendously. I did my ALS paramedic course back in 2005 and since then I have had minimal time using a vent. This course has been very helpful as a refresher in my skills. Thank you!

    I have not come across such a course that makes sure that the fundamental concepts are made clear in the student's mind. Without presuming otherwise each concept is explained in a way that makes things crystal clear. Thanks to the Medcram team and Dr. Seheult
