Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of inspired oxygen fraction (FiO2) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on gas exchange in mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19.

Introduction Previous studies suggested that electrical impedance tomography (EIT) has the potential to guide positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration via quantifying the alveolar collapse ...

The following is a summary of “High PEEP/low FiO 2 ventilation is associated with lower mortality in COVID–19,” published in the October 2024 issue of Critical Care by Goossen et al. The effectiveness ...

Current CONOPs has oxygen inlet valve closed during exhale to conserve oxygen, using ambient air instead to provide PEEP. This will purge the patient tubing with ambient air. If the tubing is long and ...

mechanical ventilator_G_497601235 An overall higher mortality rate was associated with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome ARDS management with PEEP levels lower than those recommended by ...

Introduction: mechanical ventilation is a necessarytherapy in critical pathologies with respiratory failure, producing acute pulmonary injury. Objectives: To identify an acute pulmonary injuryby ...
