Unlike other references on the topic, this resource is about mechanical ventilation rather than mechanical ventilators. It is written to provide a solid understanding of the general principles and essential foundational knowledge of mechanical ventilation as required by respiratory therapists and critical care physicians. To make it clinically relevant, Essentials of Mechanical Ventilation includes disease-specific chapters related to mechanical ventilation in these conditions. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Fourth Edition has been carefully updated throughout. New content includes coverage of mechanical ventilation of the obese patient and advanced monitoring procedures. Concepts such as driving pressure are included, and the content has been checked against the most recently published clinical practice guidelines. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003eEssentials of Mechanical Ventilation, Fourth Edition\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e is divided into four parts: \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart One\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003ePrinciples of Mechanical Ventilation\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e describes basic principles of mechanical ventilation and then continues with issues such as indications for mechanical ventilation, appropriate physiologic goals, and ventilator liberation. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Two\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eVentilator Management\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, gives practical advice for ventilating patients with a variety of diseases. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Three\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMonitoring During Mechanical Ventilation\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, discusses blood gases, hemodynamics, mechanics, and waveforms. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart Four\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eTopics in Mechanical Ventilation\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, covers issues such as airway management, aerosol delivery, and extracorporeal life support. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDean R.
