How Does Alteration of Airway Resistance Affect Delivered Tidal Volume in Adult Patients Receiving High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation?
Concerns exist regarding the ability of HFOV to provide the needed lung protective ventilation for adult patients with ARDS. HFOV is increasingly being used as a lung protecting ventilation mode even if some of its protective attributes may be lost as the airway resistance (Raw) increases or decreas...
