Mechanical Power for Protective Mechanical Ventilation in Patients Wit
- 13/10/2023
Mechanical power is an easy bedside tool to guide lung protective ventilation, as it is an index of the energy load applied to the lung during mechanical ventilation and expresses in one formula all the main determinants of ventilator-induced lung injury. Although a threshold value has not already been defined, a mechanical power greater than 17 J/min has been demonstrated to be associated with...
