Liberation From Mechanical Ventilation
b'In this episode of Critical Matters, we will discuss mechanical ventilation.\\n\\nOur guest is Dr. Eduardo Mireles-Cabodevila, a practicing pulmonary critical care physician and Director of the Medical Intensive Care Unit at the Cleveland Clinic. His areas of clinical interest are critical care medicine, application of mechanical ventilation, acute and chronic respiratory failure, and extracorporeal life support. Our conversation covers general concepts related to liberation from mechanical ventilation, weaning from mechanical ventilation, and also examines how these concepts may apply to COVID-19 patients. \\n\\nAdditional Resources:\\nLiberation From Mechanical Ventilation in Critically Ill Adults: An Official American College of Chest Physicians/American Thoracic Society Clinical Practice Guideline: Inspiratory Pressure Augmentation During Spontaneous Breathing Trials, Protocols Minimizing Sedation, and Noninvasive Ventilation Immediately After Extubation: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27818331/\\nAn Official American Thoracic Society/American College of Chest Physicians Clinical Practice Guideline: Liberation from Mechanical Ventilation in Critically Ill Adults.
