Ventilatory Failure

Part of the book series: Update in Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine ((UICM,volume 15))

Abstract

Pressure support ventilation (PSV) is a mode of partial ventilatory support which can be used in spontaneously breathing patients, both in the early phase of acute respiratory failure (ARF) and during weaning from mechanical ventilation (MV) [1]. It offers numerous advantages among which the fact that it is generally easily accepted by the patients, but has also some limitations which must be well known before proposing an extensive use of this mode in Intensive Care Units (ICU). Some data probably suggest it is one of the most interesting method to be used in difficult-to-wean patients but more information is needed about its role as a full ventilatory support.
