Dynamic monitoring of respiratory drive and inspiratory effort
Lung-diaphragmatic protective ventilation aims to limit damage to the lung and diaphragm during mechanical ventilation in critically ill patients.The dynamic monitoring of respiratory drive and inspiratory effort is the focus of the clinical strategies for implementating lung-diaphragm protective ventilation strategies.This paper reviews the existing indicators for dynamic monitoring of respiratory drive and inspiratory effort at the three levels of respiratory muscle,pressure change,and pulmonary ventilation according to the physiological pathway of respiratory drive and discusses their significance,acquisition methods,and thresholds.
