Surgical Clinics of North America, 2012
The treatment of respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation has advanced significantly over the last 20 years. The goal of therapy in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome should be to optimize oxygenation while minimizing the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury and providing adequate ventilation. Appropriate use of ventilation

BMJ, 2011
National registries are needed to reduce variations in care and improve patient safety More than 140 000 critically ill patients are admitted to intensive care in England and Wales each year. Delayed weaning (>14 days) and continued dependence on mechanical ventilation occur in 2-5% of these people. The human and financial costs of this dependence are

Neonatal mechanical ventilation
The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2003This study was undertaken to analyze indications, complications, outcome and the factors influencing neonatal mechanical ventilation.Prospective observational study conducted on 102 consecutive newborns, who required mechanical ventilation in a medical college tertiary neonatal care setting.The commonest indication was birth asphyxia (37.3%), followed ...

Noninvasive mechanical ventilation
Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2012A critical review of the most recent literature regarding use and clinical indications of noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIV).According to several randomized controlled trials, NIV has gained acceptance as the preferred ventilatory modality to treat acute respiratory failure (ARF) due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations ...

Mechanical ventilation strategies
Seminars in Fetal and Neonatal Medicine, 2017Although only a small proportion of full term and late preterm infants require invasive respiratory support, they are not immune from ventilator-associated lung injury. The process of lung damage from mechanical ventilation is multifactorial and cannot be linked to any single variable.

Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 1988
Recently, interest in the use of mechanical ventilation outside the hospital setting has been increasing. Patients with various types of chronic respiratory failure may benefit from this approach. Evaluation for long-term mechanical ventilation necessitates assessment of the underlying disease process, the goals of the medical team, and the needs of ...

Invasive Mechanical Ventilation
Critical Care ClinicsInvasive mechanical ventilation allows clinicians to support gas exchange and work of breathing in patients with respiratory failure. However, there is also potential for iatrogenesis. By understanding the benefits and limitations of different modes of ventilation and goals for gas exchange, clinicians can choose a strategy that provides appropriate ...

Tracheostomy in mechanical ventilation
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2012Airway access for mechanical ventilation (MV) can be provided either by orotracheal intubation (OTI) or tracheostomy tube. During episodes of acute respiratory failure, patients are commonly ventilated through an orotracheal tube that represents an easy and rapid initial placement of the airway device.
