Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury Risk Assessment

Assess risk of ventilator-induced lung injury integrating tidal volume (mL/kg IBW), driving pressure, plateau pressure, respiratory rate, and mechanical power to guide lung-protective ventilation adjustments.

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.
