Lung Protective Ventilation- Compliance With Best Practice Guidance: Critical Care Network Audit
نویسندگان
چکیده
Methods The audit design was a multi centre 2 day snapshot audit undertaken for 2 consecutive 24hr periods in July 2013. Data was collected on a standard proforma by nominated data collectors in each critical care unit. The audit standards were adopted from ARDSNET with a target tidal ventilation of 6ml/kg (based on ideal body weight, calculated from patients ulnar length), peak inspiratory pressure of 30cmH20 and judicious use of PEEP. FiO2 data was also collected.

Introduction There is good evidence that all invasively ventilated patients should undergo lung-protective ventilation (LPV) [1,2]. As well as LPV, there is a strong evidence base for other routine interventions in the care of ventilated patients. We performed a one day snapshot audit and survey of attitudes towards invasive ventilation practice in intensive care units across the Severn (Bristo...

OBJECTIVE No studies have explored the barriers to implementing lung-protective ventilation in patients with acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Our objective was to identify barriers to using lung-protective ventilation in patients with ALI/ARDS. DESIGN Survey with content analysis of open-ended responses. SETTING Medical center.

متن کاملNew method to evaluate the practice of positive pressure ventilation in intensive care units.
BACKGROUND There is good evidence to support the use of a "protective" ventilation strategy, using small tidal volumes and inspiratory pressures, in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. Many general intensive care units in the UK are being slow to adopt this approach and we therefore set out to devise a method to audit ventilation and possibly influence practice in these units. ...
متن کاملLost in translation? The pursuit of lung-protective ventilation
Acute lung injury (ALI) and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remain important causes of morbidity and mortality in the critically ill patient, with far-reaching short-term and long-term implications for individual patients and for healthcare providers. It is well accepted that mechanical ventilation can worsen lung injury, potentially worsening systemic organ function, and can thu...
متن کاملMechanical ventilation strategies for intensive care unit patients without acute lung injury or acute respiratory distress syndrome: a systematic review and network meta-analysis
BACKGROUND It has been shown that the application of a lung-protective mechanical ventilation strategy can improve the prognosis of patients with acute lung injury (ALI) or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, the optimal mechanical ventilation strategy for intensive care unit (ICU) patients without ALI or ARDS is uncertain. Therefore, we performed a network meta-analysis to ide...
