MDpocket Ventilator Management Card Set

Learning how to expertly manage a ventilator is one of the most challenging skills required in intensive care. Unfortunately, ventilator education often skips the basics and teaches Modes and Settings, instead of teaching The Breath. By teaching the breath as the base of the pyramid, modes and dysynchrony become much easier to understand and manage at the bedside. Further, optimizing PEEP and adjusting ventilators to each individual patient becomes not only possible, but simple.  In addition to teaching ventilator breaths and modes, these cards review how to set the ventilator, adjust it to each individual patient and how to identify and treat ventilator dyssynchrony. Additional pages tackle APRV, from risks and benefits, to initial settings, to titration and weaning, and ARDS. These cards were created during the COVID surge to assist non-intensivists in managing ventilators, and they are a must-have for quick and easy reference for these complex topics.  

Ventilator Breaths/Ventilator Modes:

1 The ventilator itself delivers flow at all times. “Pressure Delivered” here means the ventilator simply increases/decreases airflow, rapidly titrating to the goal pressure. This is fast and for practical purposes can be ignored.

2 Pressure regulated volume control has a variety of names: volume auto-flow (VAF), Pressure Control-Plus (PC+), and more.  

Ventilator Modes:

1 Based on the ventilator brand, either the I:E or the Itime is set by the user.  

Airway Pressure Release Ventilation:

1 Other names include: BiLevel(Covidien), Bi-Vent (Maquet), BiPhasic (Carefusion) and DuoPAP (Hamilton).

4 A more accurate T-low can be done with calculation of (tau, the time constant); t = Resistance (cmH2O/L/s) x Compliance (L/cmH2O). Start with T-low ~ 1–1.5. Next, titrate T-low to stop exhalation at ≥50% of the PEFR.  

Setting the Ventilator:

X ARDS is a catch-all here; lung protective measures should be pursued in all patients and low volumes used in any patient with poor pulmonary compliance.
