Mechanical Ventilation Advanced - Double Triggering Versus Reverse Triggering | Clinical Medicine

In this advanced clinical medicine video, we break down two complex patient-ventilator asynchronies: double triggering and reverse triggering. These phenomena can compromise oxygenation, increase lung injury risk, and complicate sedation strategies—especially in critical care and ICU settings. We'll walk through the mechanisms, ventilator waveforms, patient physiology, and clinical implications, so you can recognize, interpret, and manage these two patterns.

Mechanical Ventilation Advanced - Driving Pressure (DP) | Clinical Medicine

Driving pressure (ΔP) is one of the most important predictors of mortality in patients with ARDS on mechanical ventilation—but it's often misunderstood or overlooked in clinical practice.
In this advanced mechanical ventilation podcast, we cover:
• What driving pressure is and how it’s calculated (ΔP = Plateau – PEEP)
• Why driving pressure may matter more than tidal volume or plateau pressure
• Clinical relevance in lung-protective ventilation and ARDS outcomes
• Evidence behind targeting low ΔP for improved survival
• Tips on how to optimize ventilator settings using driving pressure
• When and how to measure plateau pressure accurately
