Air Hunger on Mechanical Ventilation

In this educational video, we delve into the concept of “air hunger” in patients on mechanical ventilation, a critical phenomenon where the patient experiences a subjective need for more air due to insufficient ventilatory support. One key indicator we’ll discuss is a significant drop in inspiratory pressure, which can signal that the patient’s respiratory demands aren’t fully met.
Whether you’re a healthcare professional managing critically ill patients or simply interested in understanding the complexities of mechanical ventilation, this video provides valuable insights.
