ventilator induced lung injury (vili)

What are the Treatment Options for VILI in Pediatric Patients?

Once VILI is identified, the main focus is on supportive care and minimizing further lung injury:
- Adjusting ventilator settings to more lung-protective strategies
- Administering corticosteroids to reduce inflammation in selected cases
- Providing adequate sedation and analgesia to minimize patient-ventilator asynchrony
- Considering alternative ventilation modes like HFV or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in severe cases
