3 main goals of mechanical ventilation
safety (ensure adequate gas exchange, provide lung protection)
comfort (max synchrony, ensure adequate work by vent in response to work support demand by the pt.)
liberation (minimize duration of vent + risk of adverse events)
clinical indications for conventional ventilation
inadequate/absent RR
increased WoB
high O2 needs
severe resp. acidosis
mod-severe resp. distress + contraindication for NIV
postop
NAVA equation? Edi peak and min normals?
NAVA level x (edi peak - edi min) = PS above PEEP
Edi peaks 5-15
Edi min <4
What is the largest contribution to vent-induced lung injury
excessive VT causing lung overdistention
What is improvement in PaO2 directly related to? What is the safest way to increase it?
Directly related to an increase in mPaw, with PEEP being the safest way to increase it
What two values associate w/ impending fatigue
Increase in RR by 15-20%
reduction in VT
what do you place pt on FiO2 and PEEP wise for an SBT?
FiO2 0.50
<+8cmH2O
