47C h a p t e r 4 Mechanical VentilationThomas Johnson and Joann BennettLe a r n i n g Ob j e c t i v e s 1. Describe the indications for Mechanical Ventilation . 2. Understand the fundamental physics behind Mechanical Ventilation . 3. Develop a basic understanding of the function of positive pressure Mechanical Ventilation . 4. Describe the basic settings of Mechanical Ventilation and the impact on development of patient care plans. 5. Determine appropriate approaches to medication delivery related to the Mechanical ventilator. IntroductIonMechanical Ventilation is a basic therapeutic and supportive intervention used in the critically ill patient. While pharmacists do not spend significant time working directly with the Mechanical ventilator, a basic understanding of the settings used in and the function of Mechanical Ventilation is very helpful in the development of patient care plans.
48 chapter 4: Mechanical Ventilation Understanding mechanical ventilation will also allow the pharmacist to bet-ter interpret medical literature and participate in interdisciplinary rounds.
