June ALS Learning Series
May 15, 2023 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Join us from 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm CST for our June ALS Learning Series Webinar titled “A Pulmonologist Explains Tracheostomy and Invasive Ventilation for People Living with ALS”
Not everyone with ALS will need or choose to have a tracheostomy, but there may come a time when it’s necessary for continued breathing. You may have respiratory weakness that can no longer be treated with a mask and non-invasive ventilation. You may also need a tracheostomy to help remove secretions form your airways. Join Lisa Wolfe, MD, for a pulmonologist’s breakdown on respiratory management for those with increased ventilation needs. Community resources will be shared.
The Les Turner ALS Foundation is proud to offer this webinar at no cost to the ALS community. Thank you to the Gilbert & Jacqueline Fern Foundation and Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma America for sponsoring this webinar.
