Modes of mechanical ventilation vary between hospitals and intensive care units within a university healthcare system: a retrospective observational study

Abstract Objective As evidence-based guidance to aid clinicians with mechanical ventilation mode selection is scant, we sought to characterize the epidemiology thereof within a university healthcare system and hypothesized that nonconforming approaches could be readily identified. We conducted an ex...
