    Abstract:
    Studies of the specific features of acute posttraumatic respiratory failure in old age group victims with multiple traumas have provided an algorithm of mechanical ventilatory support. The advantage of early artificial ventilation with pressure monitoring is substantiated. There is evidence for the necessity of applying noninvasive ventilation in some cases. The proposed respiratory support tactics promoted a 12.1% reduction in mortality rates among elderly and senile victims in an intensive care unit.
