Positive-pressure mechanical ventilation is a life-saving
intervention commonly performed in intensive care units for
patients with respiratory failure. Proficiency in setting up and
monitoring the ventilator is an essential skill in modern intensive
care practice.
This app provides several scenarios that simulate interactions between a patient and a ventilator. Different modes of mechanical ventilation are presented. Clinical scenarios can be simulated by changing the properties of the lungs and the parameters of the ventilator.
