change with FiO2 or PEEP |
|
patients with ___ and ___ have highest risk of developing ARDS |
sepsis, septic shock |
|
does ARDS improve with 100% O2? |
No- requires a high PEEP to prop open ariways with low TV Bilateral diffuse pulmonary infiltrates |
|
AC ventilation |
delivers the highest level of PEEP to the lungs, risk of barotrauma patient can initiate breaths at a faster rate than backup rate all breaths are supported by ventilator |
