Pediatric and Neonatal Mechanical Ventilation, 4/E for PICU/NICU Residents and Pediatricians

• This book is intended to be a practical resource for pediatric residents, pediatricians, intensivists, anesthesiologists, neonatologists, and other healthcare professionals involved in the care of critically ill children and newborns requiring respiratory support. It provides a clear and structured approach to the principles and practice of pediatric and neonatal mechanical ventilation. The book covers essential topics including respiratory physiology, assessment of respiratory failure, indications for ventilation, ventilator modes, initial ventilator settings, monitoring, troubleshooting, and strategies for lung-protective ventilation. This edition covers new chapters of algorithms for frequently faced situations in the Pediatric ICU in an easy-to-understand language. Special emphasis is placed on the practical management of commonly encountered clinical situations, including acute respiratory distress, obstructive and restrictive lung diseases, postoperative respiratory care, ventilation in preterm and term neonates, noninvasive ventilation, high-frequency ventilation, and extracorporeal support. The text also discusses oxygenation and ventilation targets, weaning, extubation, prevention of ventilator-associated complications, and the interpretation of ventilator graphics and respiratory mechanics. Written in a concise and clinically relevant style, this book combines fundamental concepts with bedside applications. It is designed to support decision-making in the intensive care unit, neonatal intensive care unit, emergency department, operating room, and other settings where respiratory support is required. The book will be useful for trainees preparing for postgraduate and fellowship examinations, as well as for practicing clinicians seeking to strengthen their understanding and application of mechanical ventilation in children and neonates.
