Abstract
Indications for clinical application of high frequency ventilation (HFV) are given by the basic characteristics of the method (1). High frequency ventilation is capable to achieve a good gas exchange with small tidal volumes. Resulting low airway pressures and low intrathoracic pressures decrease the incidence of two main side effects of positive pressure ventilation, namely barotrauma and circulatory depression. Therefore, barotrauma or prevention of barotrauma and prevention of circulatory depression are the two main indications for high frequency ventilation.
