advanced respiratory support

Advanced respiratory support refers to specialized medical techniques and equipment used to assist patients who have severe breathing difficulties. This can include mechanical ventilation, which involves using machines to help patients breathe when they cannot do so effectively on their own. Other methods might include using high-flow oxygen therapy, non-invasive ventilation like CPAP or BiPAP, and various types of aerosol therapy to deliver medications directly to the lungs. These interventions aim to ensure adequate oxygen supply, remove excess carbon dioxide, and support patients' respiratory functions in critical situations.
