Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
Essentially all patients with acute lung injury or acute respiratory distress syndrome require mechanical ventilatory assistance to support gas exchange and reduce the work of breathing associated with the lung impairment. Unfortunately, this life-sustaining support may actually cause further lung damage and possibly lead to increased mortality. This article reviews strategies that may help minimize ventilator-induced lung injury. |
