Unfortunately listeners, today's episode brings us to the end of Get MESSy for 2021. Thank you for making our first year so successful! We hope to be back next year to continue to bring you educational content on critical care for medical students.
Fiona and Liam would love to thank the entire MESS Education team, and in particular our wonderful tech support guru Maddy, who has painstakingly edited all of our episodes behind the scenes. We'd also like to thank Lydia for all her wonderful work on promotions and advertising for the podcast.
What better way to wrap up the year than by wrapping our series on ventilation and airways with an episode on invasive ventilation. This episode builds upon a lot of principles from last episode, so it's worth listening to that first. And remember, this is just the very basics of ventilator settings - it gets a lot more complicated from here!
Thanks team, it's been a pleasure. If you have any ideas for topics you'd like to hear about next year, please let us know!

This episode is also crucial to listen to before our next episode, where we cover a lot of similar principles in the context of invasive ventilation.
