Efficacy analysis of the lung recruitment maneuver in correcting pulmonary atelectasis in neurological intensive care unit-a retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Atelectasis after supratentorial craniotomy is common. It can lead to the decrease of arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO₂) in patients with neurosurgical intensive care units (NICU), and the recovery of neurological function is more and more difficult. However, due to the particularity of maintaining the stability of intracranial pressure (ICP), there are few reports on effective ways to alleviate atelectasis and improve oxygenation in patients with NICU effectively.

Methods

A retrospective analysis was conducted to analyze the clinical data of patients with atelectasis who received lung recruitment maneuver in the NICU. This study collected data on 33 patients. Of these, 17 patients had traumatic brain injury and 16 patients had spontaneous intra
