Compared with pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV), volume-targeted ventilation is associated with decreased neonatal complications, including the combined outcome of death or bronchopulmonary ...

This Journal feature begins with a case vignette that includes a therapeutic recommendation. A discussion of the clinical problem and the mechanism of benefit of this form of therapy follows. Major ...

There is no evidence that pressure control ventilation is superior to volume ventilation in patients with ARDS. This statement assumes that the tidal volumes being used are in line with the recent ...

It is common for poor synchrony to occur in both invasive and noninvasive mechanical ventilation. It is a serious problem that may lead to increased patient discomfort, prolonged mechanical ...

I've always thought the debate between airway pressure-release ventilation (APRV) and more conventional modes (mainly variations of assist-control) was focused on 2 questions. First, are you more ...
