What mode of mechanical ventilation is designed to optimize ventilation by reducing alveolar collapse while using small tidal volumes in patients with ARDS?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

HFV was designed to simultaneously maintain adequate ventilation and reduce alveolar collapse through ventilation with high expiratory lung volumes and rapid (up to 300 breaths/min), small tidal volumes (3 to F1F1F1S1F1F1F105 ml/kg).
