The Association Between Patient-Ventilator Asynchrony and Clinical Outcomes in Mechanically Ventilated Patients: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To evaluate associations between patient-ventilator asynchrony (PVA) and clinical outcome measures.

Data sources

For this systematic review, the databases of PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Emcare were screened until June 20, 2024.

Study selection

The main inclusion criterion was the assessment of the association of PVA with clinical outcome measures (length of ICU stay, mechanical ventilation duration, and mortality).

Data extraction

All forms of PVA subtypes reported in the articles were systematically collected. Furthermore, the method used to identify asynchrony and the clinical outcomes described were recorded from each study.

Data synthesis

A total of 19 studies were included with a total of 2672 patients. The resul
