Artificial Ventilation

Artificial ventilation, also known as mechanical ventilation, is a medical procedure in which a machine assists or replaces the natural breathing process of a patient. It is often used during surgical operations that call for profound sedation, in situations of severe lung diseases, or in cases of respiratory failure. Artificial ventilation involves the use of a ventilator to deliver oxygen and remove carbon dioxide from the lungs. The process is carefully monitored to ensure appropriate oxygenation and ventilation levels. This life-saving technique requires skilled healthcare professionals to manage and adjust the ventilator settings based on the patient's condition and needs.
