Mechanical ventilation at lower level among patients without lung injury linked with better outcomes
Among patients without acute respiratory distress syndrome, protective mechanical ventilation with use of lower tidal volumes (the volume of air inhaled and exhaled during each breath) was associated ...
What is patient/ventilator synchrony? Broadly speaking, a patient and ventilator are in synchrony when the settings on the ventilator are matched with what the patient's respiratory system is trying ...
The incidence of ARDS has often been described as highly variable, depending on the type of ICU (eg, medical, surgical, trauma, burn) and type of hospital (large tertiary referral vs small community ...
In patients undergoing mechanical ventilation for the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), neuromuscular blocking agents may improve oxygenation and decrease ventilator-induced lung injury but ...
Most patients requiring mechanical ventilation for acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) receive positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) of 5 to 12 cm of water. Higher ...
Background: In anesthetized patients undergoing surgery, the role of lung-protective ventilation with lower tidal volumes is unclear. We performed a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs ...
