Respiratory disorders, lung infection, can mechanical ventilation be used for treatment?

Patient's question:

A few weeks ago, my grandmother wasn't feeling well, so we quickly took her to the hospital. The results showed that she had a lung infection. Now she has experienced breathing difficulties multiple times. I would like to consult about whether using a ventilator to treat breathing difficulties and lung infection is possible. I look forward to your reply. Thank you very much!

Doctor's answer:

The patient has repeatedly experienced respiratory distress and has a lung infection. Mechanical ventilation can be used in conjunction with the patient's breathing to stabilize the respiratory distress-induced breathing difficulties. However, when selecting this treatment method, it is also necessary to prevent lung infection, requiring the use of oral anti-infective drugs. The specific dosage and usage of these drugs should be used under the guidance of a clinical diagnosis doctor. Throughout this process, the patient's condition should be closely monitored.
