TLDR
In the current review, barotraumas will be focused on from definition to treatment.Abstract:
Barotrauma is physical damage to body tissues caused by a difference in pressure between a gas space inside, or in contact with the body, and the surrounding fluid. This situation typically occurs when the organism is exposed to a significant change in ambient pressure, such as when a scuba diver, a free-diver or an airplane passenger ascends or descends, or during uncontrolled decompression of a pressure vessel, but it can also happen by a shock wave. Whales and dolphins are also vulnerable to barotrauma if exposed to rapid and excessive changes in diving pressures. In the current review we will focus on barotraumas from definition to treatment.read more

Pneumomediastinum and subcutaneous emphysema in COVID-19: barotrauma or lung frailty?
Daniel H.L. Lemmers,Mohammed Abu Hilal,Claudio Bnà,Chiara Prezioso,Erika Cavallo,Niccolò Nencini,Serena Crisci,Federica Fusina,Giuseppe Natalini +8 more
TL;DR: Pneumomediastinum is more frequent in COVID19 patients with ARDS despite the use of a protective ventilatory approach and an increased lung frailty could explain this finding more than barotrauma, which, according to its etymology, refers to high transpulmonary pressure.

TL;DR: In this paper , a systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to assess the value and significance of available data to identify studies of spontaneous pulmonary barotrauma in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.
Barotrauma And Mechanical Ventilation
Raiko Diaz,Daniel Heller +1 more
TL;DR: Pulmonary barotrauma is the presence of extra alveolar air in locations where it is not present under normal circumstance, and in patients receiving non-invasive mechanical ventilation is much lower when compared to patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation.
Physiology, Tidal Volume
TL;DR: Tidal volume is clinically important not only for ventilator settings in the critically ill patient, but can also be clinically important during spontaneous respiration, which is important both in restrictive ventilatory defects and in obstructive lung disease.

Outcomes of Barotrauma in Critically Ill COVID-19 Patients With Severe Pneumonia.
TL;DR: Pneumomediastinum and pneumothorax are complications which may be associated with barotrauma in mechanically ventilated patients as discussed by the authors, and the current literature demonstrates unclear outcomes reg...

Ventilation with lower tidal volumes as compared with traditional tidal volumes for acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome.
Roy G. Brower,Michael A. Matthay,Alan H. Morris,David A. Schoenfeld,B. Taylor Thompson,Arthur P. Wheeler +5 more
TL;DR: In patients with acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome, mechanical ventilation with a lower tidal volume than is traditionally used results in decreased mortality and increases the number of days without ventilator use.

Open up the lung and keep the lung open.
TL;DR: Sj6strand's group, using an animal model of ARDS induced by surfactant depletion, applied five established ventilator modes, adjusting either volume or pressure at preset frequencies to keep end-expiratory alveolar pressure at about 16 cmH20 and PaCO2 constant (___4 kPa).

Best compliance during a decremental, but not incremental, positive end-expiratory pressure trial is related to open-lung positive end-expiratory pressure: a mathematical model of acute respiratory distress syndrome lungs.
TL;DR: The maximum PV slope during a decremental PEEP trial with a low VT may be a useful method to determine open-lung PEEP in ARDS, and should be studied clinically.
