Title: Ventilator-Associated Lung Injury Cord-id: xs7gr9p6 Document date: 2021_5_18
ID: xs7gr9p6
Snippet: Ventilatory support, while life saving, can also cause or aggravate lung injury through several mechanisms which are encompassed within ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI). The important realizationin the acute respiratory distress syndrome that the “baby†lung resided in non-dependent areas led to the conceptualization of “lung rest†to reduce stress and strain to exposed alveolar units. We discuss concepts and mechanisms within VALI that ultimately induce maladaptive lung response
Document: Ventilatory support, while life saving, can also cause or aggravate lung injury through several mechanisms which are encompassed within ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI). The important realizationin the acute respiratory distress syndrome that the “baby†lung resided in non-dependent areas led to the conceptualization of “lung rest†to reduce stress and strain to exposed alveolar units. We discuss concepts and mechanisms within VALI that ultimately induce maladaptive lung responses, as well as, current and future management strategies to detect and mitigate VALI at the bedside.
