Mechanical Ventilation
November 1st & 2nd, 2026
A first-of-its-kind opportunity for intensivists in India to learn the Cleveland Clinic's structured approach to mechanical ventilation.
Bringing Cleveland Clinic's globally acclaimed SEVA Program to India, featuring Dr. Eduardo Mireles-Cabodevila, MD, CHSE, FCCM, one of the pioneering educators behind the program to train an exclusive cohort of critical care professionals.
Dr. Mireles-Cabodevila is the Director of the Medical Intensive Care Unit at the Cleveland Clinic. He is board certified in Internal Medicine, Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine.
He has a special interest in education in critical care, specifically in the use of simulation to enhance and accelerate learning.
Along with Professor Rob Chatburn, he directs the Standardized Education for Ventilatory Assistance (SEVA) program which uses simulation-based instruction that is both self-directed and instructor-led with online and in-person venues to elevate the competency of health care professionals to a mastery level.
Dr. Dileep Raman is the Co-founder and Chief of Healthcare at Cloudphysician and the driving force behind Cloudphysician Academy's mission to advance critical care education in India. Trained in Pulmonary, Critical Care, and Sleep Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic, with residency at Texas Tech University, Dr. Raman combines global clinical expertise with a deep commitment to improving critical care outcomes through education and innovation.
Under his leadership, Cloudphysician Academy has partnered with Cleveland Clinic to bring the internationally recognized SEVA® (Standardized Education for Ventilatory Assistance) Program to India, enabling clinicians to access globally benchmarked mechanical ventilation training closer to home.

Globally Recognized Certificate
Certificate of completion from Cleveland Clinic.
The SEVA mission is to provide a universal and standardized education program in the theory and practice of mechanical ventilation. SEVA uses online and simulation-based instruction that is both self-directed and instructor-led to elevate the competency of healthcare professionals to a mastery level.
Elevating the standard of mechanical ventilation across India
Bringing Cleveland Clinic's globally benchmarked SEVA framework to Indian intensivists — so every patient on a ventilator, in every ICU, receives care guided by standardized, evidence-based practice.
Fundamental Level Overview
Goal
The Fundamental Level of the SEVA program provides the foundational knowledge and skills required to understand and manage basic principles of mechanical ventilation. Tailored for caregivers new to ventilator management, including medical students, residents, and respiratory therapists, this level focuses on six key areas: the equation of motion, ventilator mode taxonomy, clinical goal-based mode selection, basic waveform interpretation, patient-ventilator interactions, and the Goal-Directed Ventilator Management Method.
With an emphasis on building competence and confidence, the Fundamental Level prepares learners to advance their expertise and optimize patient care.
Participation in this level requires completion of SEVA-basic. The SEVA-theory and SEVA-lab courses are also available to enhance learning but are not mandatory for completion.
Intended Audience
Any caregiver involved with mechanical ventilation. Learners who would benefit from this level include medical students, residents rotating in the ICU, advanced practice providers, and nursing or respiratory therapists who work with mechanical ventilators.
The course focus is to establish knowledge and competency in 6 topics:
- The equation of motion
- Ventilator mode taxonomy (classification system)
- Choosing a mode of ventilation based on clinical goals
- Basic ventilator waveform interpretation
- Overview of patient-ventilator interactions
- Application of the Goal-Directed Ventilator Management Method
Learning Objectives
- Apply the principles of safe ventilation according to the goals of ventilation.
- Optimize ventilation and patient-ventilator interactions using standardized protocols and techniques based on current evidence and physiology.
- Demonstrate proficiency in using monitoring equipment and technology to evaluate patients undergoing mechanical ventilation.
- Evaluate patient-ventilator interactions and classify modes of ventilation based on the mode taxonomy.
- Apply principles of oxygenation management to ensure patient safety and optimize ventilation settings to minimize ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI).
- Assess respiratory drive and effort using appropriate clinical tools, methods, interpret the results to modify ventilation support and manage patient discordance.
- Utilize standardized nomenclature and vocabulary to improve communication related to mechanical ventilation.
