Core Tip

Core Tip: Sequential mechanical ventilation in the treatment of severe pneumonia complicated by respiratory failure is more effective in improving respiratory system compliance, reducing inflammatory response, maintaining hemodynamic stability, and thus improving patient blood-gas level more effectively.
