Innovations in Mechanical Ventilation Richard D Branson MSc RRT FAARC and Jay A Johannigman MD Introduction Closed-Loop Control of Weaning History SmartCare/PS Invention or Innovation Automated Measurement of Functional Residual Capacity During Mechanical Ventilation History Automated FRC Measurements Using Nitrogen Washout Principle of Measurement FRC INview Accuracy and Application Invention or Innovation Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist History and Principle of Operation Application Current Literature Invention or Innovation Information Presentation History and Principles Current Literature Implementation Invention or Innovation Summary New features of mechanical ventilators are frequently introduced, including new modes, monitoring techniques, and triggering techniques. But new rarely translates into any measureable improvement in outcome. We describe 4 new techniques and attempt to define what is a new invention versus what is innovative—a technique that significantly improves a measurable variable. We describe and review the literature on automated weaning, automated me
