In this episode of the podcast Hunter and I sit down with Joe again to discuss the role of optimizing Flow in our mechanically ventilated patients, and how to manipulate this on our vents.
We also discuss some of the risks associated with certain vent modes for patients who Flow Hunger and one strategy for correcting ventilator asynchrony.
We highly recommend you check out the video that accompanies this podcast over in the FlightCrit Academy.

- Describe Pulse Pressure and explain how it can be used to assess a patient in cardiogenic shock.
- Provide appropriate preintubation resuscitation to a patient in cardiogenic shock.

016: Lung Compliance and Optimizing PEEP w/ the Respiratory Coach
FlightCrit Podcast
06/02/22 • 74 min
Mechanical Ventilators, such as the Hamilton T1, ReVel, and ZOLL Z-Vent, are not only vital pieces of equipment used in the ICU and in Critical Care Transport, but they are becoming more popular for use by EMS services for interfacility transport so it's vitally important that EMS and Critical Care providers have a deep understanding of not only how these devices work, but also how different disease processes changes the way our patient interacts with the ventilator.
And who better to learn from than a Respiratory Therapist.
In this episode, we have the pleasure of chatting with Joe Lewis, better known as the Respiratory Coach, as he schools us on Dynamic and Static Compliance, how we can use our PIPs and Plateau Pressures to identify changes in both, and how we can optimize PEEP by looking at changes in Static Compliance. We also go off the deep end discussing Driving Pressure and how this just may be the future of mechanical ventilation.
