Introduction
Breath to Ventilate to Respirate to Oxygenate
Always eat when you are hungry,
Always drink when you are dry,
Always wash when you are dirty,
Don't stop breathing, or you'll die!
Moving air in and out the upper Airway
Moving air in and out the lungs
Gas exchange : Alveolar/Capillary level

Principle of Mechanical Ventilation
Neuromuscular Disorders
DefinitionsAcute respiratory failure occurs when:
pulmonary system is no longer able to meet the metabolic demands of the body
Hypoxaemic respiratory failure:PaO2 < 60 mmhg when breathing room air
Hypercapnic respiratory failure:PaCO2 >50 mmhg
Circulation or labsHypoxia, hypercapnia

V gas = A* D* (P1-P2)/ T
PAO2= PiO2 – PACo2 ( FiO2+ 1-FiO2 )
For FiO2 less than 0.6
PAO2 = FiO2 (PB- PH2O) – Paco2 * 1.2
PAO2 = FiO2 ( 760- 47) – PaCOco2 * 1.2

Restore breathing and protect airways• Optimize Minute Ventilation Improve ventilation/perfusion relationshipDecrease work of breathingImprove oxygenation
summeryDoes not correct every path physiology of
respiratory failure.Corrects only certain types of hypoxiaDoes not replace the non respiratory
function of the lungs.Using Mechanical Ventilation without
knowing the mechanism of a particular respiratory failure could be detrimental.

OxygenationThe primary goal of oxygenation is to maximize O2 delivery to blood (PaO2)
• Alveolar-arterial O2 gradient (PAO2 – PaO2)
• Equilibrium between oxygen in blood and oxygen in alveoli
• A-a gradient measures efficiency of oxygenation
• PaO2 partially depends on ventilation but more on V/Q matching
• Oxygenation in context of ICU
• V/Q mismatching• Patient position (supine)• Airway pressure, pulmonary
parenchymal disease, small-airway disease
• Adjustments: FiO2 and PEEP
V/Q Matching. Zone 1 demonstrates dead-space ventilation (ventilation without perfusion). Zone 2 demonstrates normal perfusion. Zone 3 demonstrates shunting (perfusion without ventilation).
