The journal einstein (São Paulo) – e-ISSN 2317-6385 is dedicated to dissemination of high-quality scientific content that advances our understanding of human disease with the goal of improving prevention, care, diagnostics and treatment of patients globally.
Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is a leading cause of pediatric hospitalizations, and invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) is an essential support in severe cases.() Data obtained through expiratory and inspiratory pause maneuvers on mechanical ventilators during spontaneous breathing in adult IMV patients have been shown to aid prevention of patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI).(,)
