High-frequency ventilation (HFV) uses small breaths to support breathing. This review covers HFV techniques and clinical uses in surgery, respiratory failure, and emergencies.

Area of Science:

  • Critical Care Medicine
  • Respiratory Physiology
  • Mechanical Ventilation

Background:

  • High-frequency ventilation (HFV) is defined as ventilation with tidal volumes near or below anatomical dead space.
  • Various HFV techniques exist, offering distinct physiological effects and clinical applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the different techniques of high-frequency ventilation.
  • To discuss the broad clinical applications of HFV across various medical scenarios.

Main Methods:

  • Review of high-frequency ventilation techniques including high-frequency positive pressure ventilation, high-frequency jet ventilation, high-frequency flow interruption, and high-frequency oscillatory ventilation.
  • Discussion of clinical applications such as surgical procedures, barotrauma management, respiratory failure, neonatal respiratory distress syndrome, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation.

Main Results:

  • HFV encompasses several distinct methods (e.g., HPPV, HFJV, HFFI, HFOV).
  • HFV demonstrates utility in diverse clinical settings, from operating rooms to emergency resuscitation.

Conclusions:

  • High-frequency ventilation offers versatile therapeutic options for respiratory support.
  • Further exploration of HFV in critical care, including battlefield medicine and patient transport, is warranted.
