Indications for Use

The indications of the mechanical ventilation is as follows:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7]

  • The three most common indications for mechanical ventilation are

1) Inadequate oxygenation

2) Inadequate ventilation

3) Inability to protect the airway

Other indications for mechanical ventilation include the following:

  • Bradypnea
  • Tachypnea (>30 breaths/minute)
  • Apnea with respiratory arrest including cases from intoxication
  • Acute respiratory distress syndrome
  • Vital capacity less than 15 ml/kg
  • Minute ventilation greater than 10 Lts/min
  • Reduced respiratory drive
  • Abnormalities of the chest wall
  • Respiratory muscle fatigue
  • Intrapulmonary shunt
  • V/Q mismatch (ventilation-perfusion)
  • Decreased Functional Residual Capacity
  • Arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) with a supplemental fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) of less than 55 mm Hg
  • Alveolar-arterial gradient of oxygen tension (A-a DO2) with 100% oxygenation of greater than 450 mm Hg
  • Coma
  • Hypotension due to sepsis, shock, CHF
  • Acute partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) greater than 50 mm Hg with an arterial pH less than 7.25
  • Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
  • Acute respiratory acidosis with
  • Increased work of breathing as evidenced by significant tachypnea, retractions, and other physical signs of respiratory distress
  • Hypoxemia with arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) with supplemental fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) < 55 mm Hg
  • Neuromuscular disease
