Mechanical Ventilation - The Big Picture
Description
Mechanical ventilation doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. In this episode, we break down mechanical ventilation from the big-picture perspective, focusing on how all the pieces fit together rather than memorizing isolated settings.
We cover the core concepts that actually matter at the bedside, including: • How mechanical ventilation works • Common ventilator modes (AC, PC, APRV, pressure support) • FiO₂, PEEP, and oxygenation strategies • Lung-protective ventilation • Basic ventilator waveforms • Patient–ventilator interaction • Weaning and liberation principles • Common mistakes and misconceptions
