This may not have been the case if researchers had not persisted in investigating the therapy after early disappointing clinical trials. Devices capable of providing this therapy to adults have become commercially available relatively recently. However there are many questions that need to be answered regarding HFOV in adults Is HFOV in adults superior to conventional mechanical ventilation Who is the ideal candidate for HFOV When should it be applied What is the best technique with which to apply it When should a patient on HFOV be converted back to conventional ventilation What is the safety and efficacy of the device As outlined in the following debate there are several compelling arguments for and against the use of HFOV at this point in adults. Keywords acute respiratory failure critical illness high-frequency oscillatory ventilation mechanical ventilation The scenario You have been asked to assist in the organization of and equipment purchases for a new large state of the art adult intensive care unit. You are encouraged to obtain leading edge equipment that offers the patients the best hope of survival. While ordering mechanical .
