tidal volume adjustment
Tidal volume adjustment refers to changing the amount of air delivered to a patient during mechanical ventilation to match their specific breathing needs. It ensures the lungs receive enough air to maintain proper oxygen and carbon dioxide levels without overinflating or damaging them. Adjustments are based on factors like body size, lung health, and real-time breathing measurements. Proper tuning of tidal volume helps provide effective support while minimizing risks of lung injury, supporting overall respiratory health during treatment.
