Functional residual capacity tool: A practical method to assess lung volume changes during pulmonary complications in mechanically ventilated patients

In this report, we describe a patient in whom we used a functional residual capacity (FRC) tool available on a critical care ventilator to identify the loss of lung volume associated with pulmonary complications and increase in FRC with the application of a recruitment maneuver. The case report unde...
