  • Title: High-frequency ventilation.
    Author: Crawford MR.
    Journal: Anaesth Intensive Care; 1986 Aug; 14(3):281-92. PubMed ID: 3530042.
    Abstract:
    Over the last six years high-frequency ventilation has been extensively evaluated both in the clinical and laboratory settings. It is now no longer the great mystery it once was, and it is now no longer believed (as many had hoped), that it will solve all the problems associated with mechanical pulmonary ventilation. Although the technique is safe and appears to cause no harm even in the long term, it has not yet been shown to offer any major advantages over conventional mechanical ventilation.
