Brief Summary
When mechanical ventilation is initiated, a humidification method should be chosen. There is two methods: heat and humidity exchanger filters or heated humidity. The second method is recognized to be more efficient, but many external factors can influence its performance. Insufficient humidity results in observable problems, such as difficult management of respiratory secretions. The study compare two heated humidifiers already used in ICU. Data will be collected retrospectively from June 1, 2021.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria: * ≥ 18 years old * Admitted to intensive care * Under invasive mechanical ventilation with the usual indications for the use of a heated humidifier (prolonged invasive mechanical ventilation and / or protective ventilation requiring high respiratory rates. Exclusion Criteria: * Mechanical venitilation immediately after surgery (\<24h) * Imminent extubation or planned intubation of very short duration (\<24h) * Enrolled in the SAVE-ICU study in the group receiving volatile agents with the AnaConDa system.
