Mechanical ventilators save lives, but they may also be causing hidden damage. A groundbreaking study reveals that the ...

A new study from Tulane University suggests that repeated collapse and reopening of tiny alveoli—air sacs in the lungs essential for breathing—during ...

Mar. 3, 2025 — A new study sheds light on ventilator-induced lung injury, a complication that gained increased attention during the COVID-19 pandemic, which led to a surge in patients requiring ...

This study provides a comprehensive exploration of the role of IL-1β signaling during development of lung injury induced by a combination of underlying inflammation and mechanical ventilation. The ...

Post-COVID pulmonary fibrosis, which involves scarring of the lungs that can worsen over time and may require a lung ...

was admitted in your ICU 2 d ago with a diagnosis of acute lung injury secondary to a viral pneumonia. He failed a trial of noninvasive mechanical ventilation and has been intubated 12 hr ago.

The study suggests that minimizing these repetitive collapse-and-reopening cycles could significantly reduce ventilator-induced lung injury. Researchers noted that adjusting ventilation strategies ...
