High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation


Technique

Indications

Contraindications

Side effects

Protocol

Note

High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV)

Acute respiratory distress syndrome with hypoxemia refractory to conventional protective ventilation

Recent lung surgery, lung disease characterized by airway narrowing or air trapping, intracranial hypertension

Increased mean airway pressures, use of vasoactive drugs, neuromuscular blockers, and sedatives

Initial meanairway pressureof 30 cm H2O,later adjustedto maintainPaO2 55–80 mmHg.HFOV tidal volumesreduced using thehighest frequencyfor maintainingpH >7.25

Increases mortality compared to protective lung ventilation, avoid first-line use
