Mechanical Ventilation Basics - PEEP, FiO2, Respiratory Rate, Tidal Volume | Clinical Medicine

Mechanical ventilation has many different modes and settings. In this podcast we dive into the foundational settings that everyone should know - PEEP, FiO2, Respiratory Rate, Tidal Volume, and Inspiratory Pressure. We touch on how these settings may differ between modes of ventilation, such as volume control and pressure control. We talk about normal values and ranges of values. We also discuss which settings help ventilation versus oxygenation. Start to master these topics in this podcast!
