Mechanical ventilation alarm management lacks standardized evidence-based guidelines; leaves open optimal strategies to balance safety and reduce fatigue.
Every day, respiratory therapists set mechanical ventilation alarms in an effort to keep patients safe. The alarms provide essential information about patient condition and device function.[1][1]-[3][2] Mechanical ventilation alarm management goals are simple and straightforward: alarms should
