Mechanical ventilation: changing concepts
A b st ra ct Mechanical ventilation is routinely delivered to patients admitted in intensive care units to reduce work of breathing, improve oxygenation, or correct respiratory acidosis. Although traditional modes of mechanical ventilation achieve many of these goals, they have important limitations. Alternative modes are supposed to handle some of these limitations and are now available on mod...
متن کاملThe changing role of mechanical ventilation in COPD.
For many years, mechanical ventilation has been employed in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) but the recent development of noninvasive techniques, particularly nasal and face mask ventilation, have considerably increased its use. The enthusiasm for these methods, however, has not been matched by the results from well-constructed studies, and the role of ventilatory sup...
متن کاملMechanical Ventilation
T lecture offers an approach in which the ventilator is used as a probe of the patient’s respiratory system mechanical derangements, and then the ventilator settings are tailored to the patient’s mechanical and gas exchange abnormalities. This facilitates early stabilization of the patient on the ventilator in such a way as to optimize carbon dioxide removal and oxygen delivery within the limit...
متن کاملMechanical ventilation.
Over the past several years, there has been an introduction of numerous modes of mechanical ventilation, each with their own advantages and limitations. This article reviews the common modes of mechanical ventilation, new technologies, and specific ventilator strategies that have been shown to be beneficial. In addition, it reviews the steps that should be taken when troubleshooting a ventilator.
متن کاملMechanical ventilation.
Among the many advances made in intensive care therapeutics in recent years, few have rivaled the impact of mechanical ventilators. Their expanded use affects all who practice in the critical care setting. This article reviews the physiologic basis for mechanical ventilation, how ventilators are classified, the various modes, and specific indications. A basic introduction is made into ventilato...
