Understanding modes of ventilation

Description

The introduction in the modern era has revolutionized the standard of respiratory and critical care medicine by integrating microprocessor-controlled flow rate and pressure waveform dynamics to optimize gas exchange for the critical care patient.Mechanical ventilation (MV) requires sound knowledge and skill together as there are potential dangers from ventilation itself. Therefore, the policy of “providing support, doing least harm” should guide ventilatory support. This presentation deals with various modes of ventilation.
