The MechVent Course’ – Speciality Certificate Course on Mechanical Ventilation in Intensive Care (July 2026 Batch – Seats limited)

The MechVent Course is a structured, six-month training programme on mechanical ventilation in intensive care, designed for doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, and paramedics. It covers the complete spectrum of the subject — from the fundamentals through to advanced mechanical ventilation.
