University of Milano-Bicocca
PDF422 pages12.4 MB
This work examines the principles and practices of mechanical ventilation, starting from fundamental pathophysiology and progressing to clinical applications and evidence. It discusses the role of PEEP in improving lung aeration and preventing collapse, referencing studies on its efficacy in various patient populations, including those with and without ARDS. The book also explores methods for assessing lung recruitment, such as pressure-volume curves and single-breath maneuvers, highlighting their feasibility and limitations for bedside use.
