The power of automated ventilation

Research output: PhD ThesisPhd-Thesis - Research and graduation internal

Abstract

Mechanical ventilation is an often–needed and sometimes even life–saving intervention in critically ill patients, but has a strong potential to harm the lung. Lung–protective ventilation could prevent ventilator–induced lung injury (VILI), but its use has challenges. Lung–protective ventilation includes the use of a low tidal volume (VT) and a low driving pressure (ΔP), which is a measure for VT
