Incidence, risk factors and outcome of barotrauma in mechanically ventilated patients

Abstract: In a cohort of patients in whom airway pressures and tidal volume are limited, barotrauma is more likely in patients ventilated due to underlying lung disease (acute or chronic). Barotrauma was also associated with a significant increase in the ICU length of stay and mortality.

“…Black traces correspond to inspiratory phase and gray traces to expiratory phase In order to simulate the model, the values of α, β , R rs , E rs andṖ max were taken from [9] for healthy subjects. P max was set to 50 cmH 2 O because higher pressures can increase barotrauma risk both in healthy and pathological subjects [76,77]. Tab.…”

“…Therefore, increasing the frequency of breaths in order to maintain adequate minute ventilation while at the same time minimizing tidal volume (TV) to the recommended values is another element of lung protective strategy. The recommended TV values for children are similar to those for adults and should amount to about 6 mL/kg of body weight [25][26][27].…”
