Episode 3 - Basic Mechanical Ventilation I: Fundamentals
Trauma ICU Rounds - A podcast by Dr. Dennis Kim
Categories:
In this episode we review and discuss the core physiologic concepts required to understand basic mechanical ventilation. By examining the respiratory equation of motion or force balance equation, we'll gain insight into the pressures that need to be generated to deliver a positive pressure breath and those pressures that can be monitored during the care of vented patients. This will form the groundwork for Basic Mechanical Ventilation II: Modes of Ventilation.Support the show
