The Forgotten Ventricle Is Killing Your ARDS Patients — and the Ventilator You Are Using to Save Them May Be the Reason Why.

22% of patients with moderate-to-severe ARDS develop acute cor pulmonale on protective ventilation. The right ventricle was never designed to handle pressure — and every PEEP increase, every hypercapnic minute, and every overdistended breath you deliver is loading a chamber that was built to fail. Here is how to recognize it, prevent it, and treat […]

Navigating Heart–Lung Interactions in Mechanical Ventilation: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Advanced Management Strategies in ARDS and Beyond

Abstract Patients in critical condition who require mechanical ventilation experience intricate interactions between their respiratory and cardiovascular systems. These complex interactions are crucial for clinicians to understand as they can significantly influence therapeutic decisions and patient outcomes. A deep understanding of heart–lung interactions is essential, particularly under the stress of mechanical ventilation, where the right
