Anaesthesia Coffee Break

Lung compliance and the simple steps to optimise it for your patient


Listen Later

In this episode we delve into lung compliance!

We chat about the 2020 aug/sep SAQ Q3: Discuss respiratory system compliance and outline factors that affect it.

We also go into how to use this theoretical knowledge to improve ventilation of patients with poor static or dynamic compliance and high ventilating pressures in pneumoperitoneum.
