High-frequency percussive ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome: knocking at the door but can it be let in?

Authors: Herbert Spapen, Jouke De Regt, Viola van Gorp, Patrick M. Honoré

Excerpt

High-frequency ventilation has been proposed as an alternative ventilation mode for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Most experience was gained with high-frequency oscillation but this technique became abandoned due to unwarranted side effects (higher need for sedation and neuromuscular blockade, prolonged hemodynamic instability) and a higher mortality [1]. …
