Better Outcomes for Ventilation With Lower Tidal Volumes Protective ventilation with lower tidal volumes is associated with better clinical outcomes in patients without acute respiratory distress ...

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 ...

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 ...

This recent survey published in the Annals of the American Thoracic Society found that most physicians agree about the benefits of LTVV. They see few barriers to use. Data from their hospitals, ...

CHICAGO –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 ...

Reduction of tidal volume in mechanically ventilated patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery could improve secondary outcomes, according to a report published in Anesthesiology. Reduction of ...

A discrepancy between the predicted ventilation standards and the actual ventilation requirements may be caused by an increase in the physiologic dead space or by an increased carbon dioxide ...
