Abstract Purpose of Review Knowledge of ventilator waveforms is important for clinicians
working with children requiring mechanical ventilation. This review covers the basics of how …

Abstract Background In ARDS, the PEEP level associated with the best respiratory system
compliance is often selected; however, intra-tidal recruitment can increase compliance …

Luigi Camporota and colleagues and Vasiliki Tsolaki and colleagues challenge our finding
that suggests that patients with COVID-19 have a form of injury that is encompassed by the …

Monitoring the patient receiving veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV

Background Since the response to lung recruitment varies greatly among patients receiving
mechanical ventilation, lung recruitability should be assessed before recruitment …

Introduction The incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) following
thoracic surgery is high, which increases the mortality rate, prolongs the length of hospital …

Monitoring lung recruitment is a crucial component of managing patients with severe lung
conditions, within the framework of a personalized ventilatory strategy. Although challenges …

Ventilator-induced (VILI) and patient-self-induced lung injury (P-SILI) contribute to acute
respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) progression in a relevant proportion of patients. VILI is …

Abstract Background and Objectives The optimal lung volume strategy during high‐
