lung protective ventilation strategy

Lung protective ventilation is a medical approach used to help patients breathe with mechanical support, especially when their lungs are injured or sick. It involves using gentle, carefully controlled breaths that avoid overstretching the lungs, which can cause further damage. The strategy uses lower pressure and volume settings on ventilators, along with monitoring to prevent lung injury and promote healing. This technique aims to improve oxygen delivery while minimizing additional harm, helping the lungs recover more effectively.
