Protective ventilation with lower tidal volumes is associated with better clinical outcomes in patients without acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

First, this study was not simply a comparison of high and low tidal volumes, but rather a comparison of two distinct and highly specific strategies of ventilatory management, with differences in ...

Reduction of tidal volume did not significantly shorten time to extubation but could still be beneficial to patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery, according to the study’s abstract. Researchers ...

"The lack of interaction between ventilator protocol assignment and BMI suggests that patients with normal, overweight, or obese BMI benefit from lower tidal volume ventilation for acute lung injury." ...

When atelectasis and pneumonia develop during constant-volume ventilation, part of the tidal volume is distributed to other areas of the lung and may open previously nonventilated and nonperfused ...

Dr Aaron Holley comments on a study that characterizes the effects of ventilator mode and tidal volume on patient/ventilator synchrony.

In this description, tidal volume, respiratory rate, and oxygen's ability to diffuse, orchestrate the delivery of oxygen to the blood. These are the variables that we can affect, to a greater or ...

Cardiology > Arrhythmias Ventilator Settings Linked to Success of Catheter Ablation for Afib — Low tidal volumes associated with improved 12-month clinical outcomes by Nicole Lou, Senior Staff ...

Among patients without acute respiratory distress syndrome, protective mechanical ventilation with use of lower tidal volumes (the volume of air inhaled and exhaled during each breath) was ...

Reduction of tidal volume in mechanically ventilated patients undergoing elective cardiac surgery could improve secondary outcomes, according to a report published in Anesthesiology.
