Summary

The purpose of this study include (1) To investigate the efficacy of ventilator hyperinflation technique to re-expand lung atelectasis on patients with critical trauma who intubated and mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit, (2) To investigate the effectiveness of ventilator hyperinflation technique to improve airway clearance on patients with critical trauma in the intensive care unit, and (3) To explore the acute responses of ventilatory functions to ventilator hyperinflation technique on patients with critical trauma who intubated and mechanical ventilation in the intensive care unit.

Conditions

  • Atelectasis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Ventilator hyperinflation technique

Hyperinflation using a ventilator or "ventilator hyperinflation technique (VHI)" was developed from the manual hyperinflation (MHI) technique. There is no need to disconnect the patient when using the VHI technique and consequently there is no loss of PEEP and little or no risk of the adverse effects associated with MHI.

PROCEDURE

Conventional treatment

Conventional treatments are the routine treatment that patients were received from the physical therapist who take care them. The routine treatments are consist of chest physical therapy techniques (i.e. vibration, positioning, etc.) and others treatment (i.e. passive movement).
