Advanced Monitoring System for Conventional and High Frequency Ventilation

Th ere are many techniques of conventional artifi cial lung ventilation (CV) that are widely used in clinical practice. However, these techniques can cause severe lung damages and also circulatory problems. Searching for new methods of artifi cial lung ventilation (ALV) that can provide the necessary gas exchange in lungs leads to implementation of new unconventional ventilatory techniques, especially high frequency ventilation (HFV). On the other hand, these unconventional techniques are diff erent from CV. Th ere is a strong need for a sophisticated monitoring system for rational application of HFV.
