Sentence examples for mechanical ventilation aims from inspiring English sources

Mechanical ventilation aims to reduce pulmonary edema and increase oxygenation.

To reduce or avoid this complication caused by an improper combination of mechanical ventilation parameters, we conducted the following trial of 3 factors with 3 levels of mechanical ventilation, aimed to obtain the low airway pressure with good ventilator effects.

The patient was transferred to the Emergency Unit and treated with mechanical ventilation aimed to expand the right lung and possibly diminished pleural bleeding.

Pulse oximetry has been shown to be reliable in titrating the fractional inspired oxygen concentration (FIO2) in patients requiring mechanical ventilation; aiming for an SpO2 of 92 % is reasonable for ensuring satisfactory oxygenation in Caucasian patients [ 6].

This bench-to-bedside review presents the scientific rationale for using adjuncts to mechanical ventilation aimed at optimizing lung recruitment and preventing the deleterious consequences of reduced tidal volume.

Although three prospective randomized clinical trials could not show decreased mortality with lung protective mechanical ventilation aiming at alveolar recruitment and the application of higher PEEP levels, better oxygenation and improvement in a relevant secondary endpoint (namely less need for rescue therapies) have been achieved [ 4- 6].

Mechanical ventilation (MV) aims to enhance blood oxygenation and to remove carbon dioxide.

Specifically, the weaning unit was accredited by the German Society of Pneumology and Mechanical Ventilation (DGP) and aims for tracheotomized patients who are ready to wean, but who still fit with the category of prolonged weaning according to international criteria while decannulation has not become successful in the external referring hospital [5].
