[Mechanical ventilation: modern technics and respirators].
Abstract
The techniques of ventilatory support have been improved during the last few years by two series of modifications: first, the introduction of the trigger and the IMV allows and stimulates greater participation of the patient in the regulation and work of respiration; second, higher levels of PEEP and CPAP produce an improvement in pulmonary gas exchange. The development and perfecting of these techniques has not increased the cost of modern ventilators. This article considers some of the advantages and shortcomings of a number of recent models.
