Haney Mallemat
About this episode

In this episode, Dr. Rory Spiegel dives deep into the benefits of Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) and why it deserves more attention in the ICU. Recorded at ResusX: Reset, Dr. Spiegel explains how APRV helps patients achieve functional residual capacity (FRC), improving lung function, reducing dead space, and easing the burden of breathing. He also dispels myths about APRV’s hemodynamic effects and shows how it can reduce the need for sedation and pressors. Tune in to learn why you should be considering APRV for your next critical patient!
