Mechanical power correlates with lung inflammation assessed by positron-emission tomography in experimental acute lung injury in pigs
Background: Mechanical ventilation (MV) may initiate or worsen lung injury, so-called ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Although different mechanisms of VILI have been identified, research mainly focused on single ventilator parameters. The mechanical power (MP) summarizes the potentially damag...
