Should we breathe quiet or noisy?

Authors: Christian Putensen, Thomas Muders

Published in: Critical Care | Issue 2/2014

Abstract

External noise is introduced by computer-generated random levels of pressure assistance during noisy pressure support ventilation (PSV). In patients, noisy PSV was associated with higher tidal volume variability but not improved cardio-pulmonary function compared with conventional PSV. The potential role of noisy PSV in the management of critically ill patients requiring ventilatory support has to be explored further.
