Ineffective inspiratory efforts (IEE) arise when there is no coordination between patient effort and ventilator support. IIE are common in different ventilatory modes and are associated with worse clinical outcomes: dyspnea, increased sedation requirements, increased IMV days and longer intensive care unit (ICU) and hospital stay. These are manifested graphically as an abrupt decrease in expiratory flow, being more frequent during expiration. However, and taking into consideration that it is still unknown whether this association is causal or rather a marker of disease severity, recognizing the potential physiological consequences, reviewing diagnostic methods and implementing detection and treatment strategies that can limit them, seems reasonable.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":49268,"journal":{"name":"Medicina Intensiva","volume":"49 5","pages":"Article 502133"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143891473","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
