Abstract:Background
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is used to support patients with respiratory impairment. Evidence supports the use of lung-protective ventilation (LPV) during MV to improve outcomes. However, studies have demonstrated poor adherence to LPV guidelines. We hypothesized that an electronic platform adapted to a hand-held tablet receiving real-time ventilatory parameters could increase clinician awareness of key LPV parameters. Furthermore, we speculated that an electronic shift-change tool coul… Show more
