However, MV can contribute to a worsening of the primary lung injury, known as ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI), which could have an important impact on outcome. Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a lifesaving supportive intervention in the management of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), buying time while the primary precipitating cause is being corrected.

The normal respiratory rate is about 14- 18 breaths per minute. The tidal volume is actually the amount of air a person takes during each breath at rest. That is for a 90 kg person the tidal volume would be 900 ml. The normal tidal volume of a person is around 8- 10 ml per kg of weight. The minute ventilation is calculated by the multiplication of the tidal volume and the respiratory rate. The minute ventilation is the amount of air a person breaths in a minute. However, this can be automatically converted to compatible units via the pull-down menu.
