AB  - This  chapter  considers  the  possible  origins  of  extraalveolar  air  in  ventilated  patients  and  then  reviews  the  manifestations  and  most  frequent  clinical  settings  of  its  various  forms.  After  a  discussion  of  general  principles  of  management  and  a  review  of  reported  therapeutic  approaches,  it  presents  logical  steps  for  prevention  in  susceptible  patients  and  points  out  important  gaps  in  the  existing  evidence  base  pertaining  to  this  important  topic.  Although  all  the  clinical  forms  of  barotrauma  are  touched  upon,  most  attention  is  devoted  to  those  that  pose  a  threat  to  life.
