That would be a great to have ppt slides to review. Honestly I hardly understood the content maybe because I am not familiar w mechanics as respiratory therapist and can’t hear well due to the accent. But I am very interested in it. Is it possible to download the slides ? Thank you very much for the opportunity!! Kimi
