Meta Analysis[The effects of high frequency oscillation ventilation on patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome: a Meta-analysis and sequential analysis of trial].
To evaluate the effect of high frequency oscillation ventilation (HFOV) vs. conventional mechanical ventilation (CV) on the treatment and prognosis of adult patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ⋯ Compared with CV, the use of HFOV in ARDS was not associated with a significant reduction in mortality. But the physiologic parameters of patients in HFOV group were better than those in the CV group. More RCTs are needed to draw a definitive conclusion.
