Overview
Mechanical ventilation
Mechanical ventilation aims to correct abnormalities in oxygenation of the blood and tissues, reduce the respiratory effort and prevent dynamic hyperinflation.
Indications
- Life threatening respiratory failure:[1][2][3]
- Severe respiratory failure with failure of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) in addition to rapid, shallow breathing, cardiopulmonary arrest, and severe hemodynamic compromise.
- Failure of noninvasive ventilation:
- Indications of failed NIV include:
- A lack of improvement in arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) and pH within 1.5 - 2 hours
- Encephalopathy
- Agitation
- Unclearable secretions
- Intolerable mask interface
- Decreased oxygen saturation
- Hemodynamic instability
- Indications of failed NIV include:
- Arterial blood gas abnormalities
- Incorrectable hypoxemia despite oxygen supplementation
- Severe respiratory acidosis unresponsive to therapy and/or NIV
