injury			Resulting alveolar instability predisposes to creation of high-stress foci and to ventilator-induced lung injury. Can ignoring airway secretions and repositioning limit lung injury? by Marini, John / FOCUS: Journal for Respiratory Care & Sleep Medicine LiquiVent is therefore expected to minimize the potential for ventilator-induced lung injury and to reduce the number of days that the patient requires ventilation support. Alliance Pharmaceutical Corp. Announces LiquiVent Phase 2-3 Clinical ... by Business Wire This is a fundamental concern, as numerous animal studies have shown that ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI) can develop within hours, or even minutes, after instituting aninjurious ventilatory strategy.
