Successful management using airway pressure release ventilation for severe postoperative pulmonary edema
Highlights • Postoperative pulmonary edema is a fatal adverse event after a cardiac surgery. • APRV is a novel mode of positive-pressure ventilation that has several advantages over low-tidal-volume, assist-control ventilation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. • APRV could be eff...

Zusammenfassung: | Highlights • Postoperative pulmonary edema is a fatal adverse event after a cardiac surgery. • APRV is a novel mode of positive-pressure ventilation that has several advantages over low-tidal-volume, assist-control ventilation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. • APRV could be effective for severe hypoxia with pulmonary edema after a cardiac surgery. |
