Mean airway pressure - Minute ventilation product (mM): A simple and universal surrogate equation to calculate mechanical power in both volume and pressure controlled ventilation

Introduction Mechanical power represents the energy delivered by a mechanical ventilator onto the lungs. It incorporates all the variables participating in ventilator-induced lung injury, including driving pressure, tidal volume, positive end expiratory

Mechanical ventilation in the home: The role of the psychiatrist

Cleveland Clinic Journal of Medicine, 1985
Mechanical ventilation in the home is preferable to hospitalization for economic and psychosocial reasons. The psychiatrist can aid in the assessment of home care candidates in three specific areas: (a) organic impairment of brain function by the primary disease or its treatment, (b) the patient’s reaction to the illness, including premorbid adaptive ...
