  • Title: Ventilatory support of the critically ill foal.
    Author: Palmer JE.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Equine Pract; 2005 Aug; 21(2):457-86, vii-viii. PubMed ID: 16051058.
    Abstract:
    Critically ill foals often have respiratory failure and benefit from respiratory support. Conventional mechanical ventilation using modem mechanical ventilators is easily adapted to foals. Establish-ing ventilator settings is a dynamic process aided by constant monitoring of blood gas values, end-tidal carbon dioxide, airway pressures, respiratory volumes, airway resistance, and respiratory compliance. Early weaning is as important as timely initiation of ventilation.
