Recognition that volume, not pressure, is the key factor in ventilator-induced lung injury and awareness of the association of hypocarbia and brain injury foster the desire to better control ...

Even more promising is the advent of volume-targeted modalities of conventional ventilation that, for the first time, allow effective control of delivered tidal volume (VT) for neonatal ventilation.

Tidal Volume, Pleural Pressure, and Pulmonary-Artery Pressure in a Patient Undergoing Assist-Control Ventilation and at the Start and End of a Failed Trial of Spontaneous Breathing.

Results An increase in hospital volume was associated with improved survival among patients receiving mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit (ICU) and in the hospital.

The recall affects 15 Carestation models and more than 14,000 individual devices. When used in volume control ventilation mode, the devices may fail to deliver effective ventilation.

GE has warned users of the Carestation platform not to use the “volume control ventilation mode” until the device is corrected. When in VCV mode, certain devices may fail to provide effective ...

Other modes of ventilation, such as pressure-regulated volume control (PRVC), high-frequency ventilation, and high-frequency jet ventilation, have not been demonstrated to provide benefit.

Dr. Winters provides a detailed explanation of mechanical ventilator management of patients intubated for severe exacerbation of asthma.

Its ventilation modes includes Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP), Bilevel Positive Airway Pressure (BiPAP), Pressure Control Ventilation, Volume Control Ventilation, Pressure Regulated ...
