Abstract
This is the go-to guide for invasive and noninvasive ventilation for the non-intensivist. From the crashing asthmatic to the patient requiring titration of their ventilator, this chapter sets you up for success in the pre- and post-intubation period for the pediatric respiratory failure patient. The DOPES mnemonic is a quick hit that everyone must know when your ventilated patient acutely deteriorates in order to troubleshoot and quickly correct their decompensation.
