ObjectiveSynchronising positive pressure inflations with an infants own breathing is considered lung protective, but the ventilation patterns within the infant lung during synchronous and asynchronous inflations are unknown. The aim of this study was to describe the regional distribution patterns of tidal ventilation within the lung during mechanical ventilation that is synchronous or asynchronous with an infants own breathing effort. MethodsIntubated infants receiving synchronised mechanical v...
