Abstract:
High-frequency Jet Ventilation (HFJV) has gained renewed interest in recent years for its ability to provide near-motionless organ conditions for ablation procedures in interventional radiology. Its main challenges are to avoid hypercarbia and barotrauma. Respiratory comorbidities and obesity are important risk factors for complications. However, with appropriate training and preparation, its safety has been shown, even in high-risk scenarios. This article summarizes its principles and its risks along with two case reports, focusing on HFJV use in interventional radiology and on a seldom discussed risk, pulmonary atelectasis.
