Switching from controlled to assisted ventilation: Evidence, risks, and opportunities in AHRF?

An ESICM Talk powered by the NEXT Committee

What are the benefits of moving from controlled to assisted mechanical ventilation in patients with Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure (AHRF)? In this podcast, experts discuss the physiological rationale behind this transition, the potential advantages for patient recovery, and the risks clinicians need to consider.

Join us as we explore the latest evidence and practical approaches to optimising ventilatory support in critically ill patients.
