- Title
Ventilator-associated Brain Injury: A New Priority for Research in Mechanical Ventilation.
- Authors
Bassi, Thiago; Taran, Shaurya; Girard, Timothy D.; Robba, Chiara; Goligher, Ewan C.
- Abstract
The article discusses ventilator-associated brain injury (VABI) as a potential complication of mechanical ventilation, presenting evidence from preclinical studies and observational data. It defines VABI as brain injury resulting directly from positive pressure mechanical ventilation, independent of other factors like sedation. It highlights the need for further research to understand the mechanisms of VABI and evaluate potential therapeutic strategies.
