Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is characterized by shunt and increased dead-space ventilation, resulting in hypoxia and increased carbon dioxide tension with respiratory acidosis. Historically, MV with high tidal volumes (VT=10-15 mL/kg) and high pressures had been recommended in patients with ARDS to ameliorate gas exchange. However, there is convincing evidence suggesting th…
Studies have shown that an additional reduction of tidal volume (TV<6ml/kg) that promotes a reduction in the driving pressure can cause less injury and pulmonary inflammation determining reduction in mortality. However, the use of low TV is associated with hypercapnia and respiratory acidosis. There are two easy-to-carry out interventions to optimize the CO2 clearance: increase of respira…
