Mechanical ventilation (MV) is still necessary for many surgical procedures; nonetheless, intraoperative MV is not free from harmful effects. Protective ventilation strategies are usually adopted to minimise ventilation-induced lung injury and to avoid postoperative pulmonary complications.

Even so, the physiological response to the MV settings should be monitored in each patient. A personalised perioperative approach is gaining relevance in the field of intraoperative MV.

In this webinar, our experts will provide an overview of the latest perioperative mechanical ventilation procedures.

Learning Outcomes

• Describe the golden rules of intubation in OR
