Mechanical ventilation with heliox in an animal model of acute respiratory distress syndrome

BACKGROUND: Heliox has a lower density and higher diffusion capacity compared to oxygen-in-air. We hypothesized that heliox ventilation allows for a reduction in minute volume ventilation and inspiratory pressures needed for adequate gas exchange in an animal model of an acute lung injury. METHODS:...
