Multiprofessional Critical Care Review: Pediatric 2024 (MCCRCP24ON)-Pulmonary Waveform Analysis

Pulmonary Waveform Analysis - Pulmonary Algorithms/Waveforms

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video presentation discusses pulmonary waveform analysis, specifically focusing on patient-ventilator dyssynchrony or asynchrony. The speaker explains that dyssynchrony can be recognized by looking at airway scalars and airway loops. Abnormalities can include trigger dyssynchrony, flow dyssynchrony, and cycle dyssynchrony. The speaker emphasizes the importance of recognizing dyssynchrony because it can lead to adverse effects such as increased work of breathing and respiratory muscle injury. The presenter also discusses different approaches to correcting dyssynchrony, including adjusting ventilator settings, optimizing lung volume, and using electrical activity of the diaphragm. The video also briefly touches on capnography and its importance in assessing dead space ventilation. Overall, the presentation provides a comprehensive overview of pulmonary waveform analysis and its clinical implications.
