Emerging concepts in ventilation-induced lung injury
2020-03-31
Abstract excerpt
Ventilation-induced lung injury results from mechanical stress and strain that occur during tidal ventilation in the susceptible lung. Classical descriptions of ventilation-induced lung injury have focused on harm from positive pressure ventilation. However, injurious forces also can be generated by patient effort and patient–ventilator interactions. While the role of global mechanics has long been recognized, reg...
