Mechanical ventilation provides oxygen and removes carbon dioxide from the lungs using positive pressure when a patient's breathing is compromised. It is indicated to improve oxygenation, ventilation, or reduce work of breathing. Various ventilator modes exist depending on how breaths are triggered and cycled. The goal is to support the patient until their underlying condition improves enough for breathing without assistance. Adverse effects can impact the lungs, heart, gastrointestinal system, and brain, so strategies aim to prevent overdistention and repetitive opening/closing of alveoli. Weaning considers respiratory muscle strength and workload. Noninvasive ventilation can sometimes achieve the goals of mechanical ventilation without intubation.
Discusses the key concepts of Artificial and Mechanical Ventilation,
Distinguishes between Negative pressure ventilation and positive pressure ventilation. Explains Ventilator Settings, indications for Intubation and ventilation, and the complication that could arise. Also classifies the various control of ventilation and the modes of ventilation

Mechanical Ventilation (MV) is almost always a challenging topic for ICU nurses and practitioners. In this presentation we are going to review and relearn basics of MV together.

Inadequate respiratory drive
Inability to maintain adequate alveolar ventilation
Hypoxia
Decision to provide MV should be based on clinical examination and assessment of gas exchange by blood gas analysis. The principal goal of MV in the setting of respiratory failure is to support gas exchange while underlying diseased process is reversed.

2. Outline
Definition
– what is it
Indications – when do you use it
Ventilator Settings – how do you use it
Modes of Ventilation
Adverse Effects
Weaning
Specific Circumstances
Summary
3. Mechanical Ventilation –
Definition
Mechanical
Ventilation =
– Use of a mechanical apparatus to provide (or
augment) the requirements of a patient’s
breathing (i.e. get O2 into and CO2 out of
alveoli)
4. Mechanical Ventilation –
Definition
Use
of positive pressure to physically
transport gases into and out of lungs
(earlier ventilators used negative pressure)
Usually
performed via ETT but not always
(noninvasive ventilation)
5. Mechanical Ventilation
A
supportive measure – not a therapy
Must
Use
diagnose and treat underlying cause
ventilator to support &/or rest patient
until underlying disorder improved – and
hopefully, not cause harm in the process
11. Inadequate Ventilation
PaCO2
∝ CO2 production
Minute Ventilation
(VE = RR x Vt)
Any condition inadequate ventilation
increased pCO2
Altered LOC
NM disorders weakness
12. Work of Breathing
WOB
~ ventilatory demands (CO2 prod’n)
~ airway resistance (i.e. severe asthma)
~ compliance (lung, c/w, abdo)
Increased
WOB usually O2/CO2 problems
but:
May need mech vent purely for WOB (i.e. asthma)
13. Summary thus far
Mechanical ventilation indicated in
situations with:
1. O2 problems (oxygenation)
2. CO2 problems (ventilation)
3. WOB (often assoc with 1 and/or 2)
Don’t always need an ETT
17. Modes of Mechanical
Ventilation
Spontaneous/Controlled/Dual
Controlled
Mechanical Ventilation (CMV)
Assist Control (AC)/Volume Control (VC)
Intermittent Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV)
Pressure Control (PCV)
Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV)
18. Modes of Mechanical
Ventilation
Trigger
Target
Cycle
– who/what starts a breath (pt/vent)
– what the vent is trying to achieve
– what causes the breath to end
19. Continuous Mandatory
Ventilation (CMV)
Trigger
–Machine initiates all breaths
Patient can not initiate
Target – Volume
e.g.
vent gives 10 bpm @ 700cc each
pt gets zero extra breaths (even if tries)
20. Assist Control (Volume
Control)
Trigger
– machine and patient
Target – volume
e.g. vent gives 10 bpm @ 700cc each
pt initiates 6 bpm – vent provides 700cc
21. Synchronized Intermittent
Mandatory Ventilation (SIMV)
Trigger
– ventilator and patient
Target – ventilator breaths = volume
patient breaths = patient effort
Settings-Mode: SIMV
Rate 10; Vt 700cc
FIO2 0.5; PEEP 5.0
e.g. vent gives 10 bpm @ 700cc each
patient takes 6 bpm @ 150 cc each
22. Pressure Control (PC)
Trigger
– ventilator and patient
Target – Pressure (above PEEP)
Settings – Mode: PC
Rate 10; Pressure 24 cm H2O
FIO2 0.5; PEEP 5
e.g. vent gives 10 bpm to a peak Paw = 29
pt takes 6 bpm targeted to peak Paw =29
23. Pressure Support Ventilation
(PSV)
Trigger
– patient only
Target - pressure
Cycle – patient flow decrease
Settings
– Mode: PSV = 14 cm H2O
FIO2 0.4; PEEP 5
e.g. pt takes 18 bpm @ Vt = 500cc
machine gives zero breaths
28. Choosing a Ventilatory Mode
Initially,
No
use mode to rest patient
benefit of any mode wrt better O2/CO2
Use
strategy to prevent adverse effects
– Avoid overdistention
– Avoid repetitive opening and closing
– Small Vt
– High PEEP
30. Noninvasive Ventilation
Avoids
intubation and complications
Can deliver various modes of ventilation
– CPAP/CPAP + PSV most common
Indications:
– hypercapneic respiratory failure (COPD exac)
– cardiogenic p. edema
31. Noninvasive Ventilation
Contraindications:
– Inability to cooperate (i.e. confusion)
– Altered LOC (unless 2. ↑pCO2 from COPD)
– Inability to clear secretions
– Hemodynamic instability
35. Weaning from Mechanical
Ventilation
Once
underlying pathology improves
Need
to ensure:
– Adequate respiratory muscle strength
– WOB not excessive
Ventilatory demands
Resistance
Compliance
36. Weaning from Mechanical
Ventilation
Volume
overload and myocardial ischemia
common causes of failure to wean
RR/Vt
= good predictor if <80-100
SIMV
inferior to SV trials or CPAP/PSV
38. Summary
Mechanical ventilation used to:
1. Improve oxygenation
2. Improve ventilation (CO2 removal)
3. Unload respiratory muscles
A support until patients condition
improves
39. Summary
Different
modes for ventilation
– differ in how breaths are initiated, ended and
assisted
– differ in independent and dependant variables
(i.e. what machine controls and what it doesn’t)
– no proven advantage of one mode
– use ventilator strategies to avoid volutrauma
and other adverse effects
