The Effect of Tidal Volumes of Mechanically Ventilated Patients on Lung Sliding Amplitude in Point‐Of‐Care Lung Ultrasound

In patients receiving mechanical ventilation support, a reduction in tidal volume results in decreased lung sliding amplitude. There is a relationship between lung sliding amplitude measured in the basal lung regions and lung compliance. Lung sliding amplitude measured in the right basal region may be associated with mortality, but this association is not present in other lung regions.
