OXYGENATION GOAL: PaO2 55-80 mmHg or SpO2 88-95% Use a minimum PEEP of 5 cm H2O. Consider use of incremental FiO2/PEEP combinations such as shown below (not required) to achieve goal.

May 1, 2004 · During the Network’s nearly twenty years of existence, it created several tools for use with patients with ALI/ARDS. Fluid management algorithm with footnotes from the FACTT study. Mechanical ventilation protocol summary of low tidal volume used in the ALVEOLI study. Tidal volumes for the ARMA study were based on predicted body weight (PBW).

Please see dedicated ventilator cards for specific guidance using different ventilator models, including how to check inspiratory hold maneuvers to assess Pplat (QR codes in RUQ of card)

Sep 8, 2021 · ARDS: patchy edema, often areas of dense consolidation interspersed with normal-appearing lung. Cardiogenic pulmonary edema: B-lines distributed throughout the lung, pleural effusions, pleural line is normal (thin).

key study underpinning the protective lung ventilation approach, which has since been extended to the safe ventilation of non-ARDS patients provides a sliding scale approach to the optimisation of FiO2 and PEEP, based on oxygenation (though the optimisation of PEEP is controversial)

ARDS, or Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, is an inflammatory lung condition involving both lungs that may complicate severe pneumonia (including influenza), trauma, sepsis, aspiration of gastric contents, and many other conditions.

Nov 3, 2024 · Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a form of acute lung injury and occurs as a result of a severe pulmonary injury that causes alveolar damage heterogeneously throughout the lung. It can either result from a direct pulmonary source …

It features the ARDS Net parameter guidelines - including FiO2/PEEP chart. This card has been introduced during the Covid-19 crisis to assist healthcare workers who may be less familiar with vents. Join our email list to learn about the latest product information and special offers.
