Ventilation

Long-term effects of two different ventilatory modes on oxygenation in acute lung injury. Comparison of airway pressure release ventilation and volume-controlled inverse ratio ventilation

The improvement was significantly different between both ventilatory modes (p < 0.01). We conclude that this indicates a progressive alveolar …Read the Rest

Airway pressure release ventilation increases cardiac performance in patients with acute lung injury/adult respiratory distress syndrom
APRV

Airway pressure release ventilation increases cardiac performance in patients with acute lung injury/adult respiratory distress syndrom

Conclusion APRV may be used safely in patients with ALI/ARDS, and decreases the need for paralysis and sedation as compared …Read the Rest
