Open Access Abstract Introduction There are several ventilator modes that are used for maintenance mechanical ventilation but no conclusive evidence that one mode of ventilation is better than another. Vibration response imaging is a novel bedside imaging technique that displays vibration energy of lung sounds generated during the respiratory cycle as a real-time structural and functional image of the respiration process. In this study we objectively evaluated the differences in regional lung vibration during different modes of mechanical ventilation by means of this new technology. Methods Vibration response imaging was performed on 38 patients on assist volume control assist pressure control and pressure support modes of mechanical ventilation with constant
