Abstract: |
This chapter describes several problems that may be associated with mechanical ventilation. Of these issues, the most important one may be the injury to the pulmonary parenchyma due to high pressure, characterized as ventilator-induced lung Injury (VILI). Poor strategy in parameter setting and /or suboptimal sedation of the patient may cause asynchrony between the patient and the ventilator. The latter can result in diaphragmatic damage, as a result of asynchronized, excessive or insufficient mechanical support. To limit the above, there is a set of measures to be taken, which are now characterized as 'lung and diaphragm protective ventilation'. An additional issue is the infective complications that may be related to mechanical ventilation, such as pneumonia and tracheobronchitis (ventilator-associated pneumonia, VAP and ventilator-associated tracheobronchitis, VAT).
