ventilation index

An obsolete value based on the ratio of pulmonary ventilation/minute divided by the vital capacity, which was supplanted by the respiratory quotient.

ventilation index

Abbreviation: VI.
1. A calculation used to determine the severity of respiratory illness (acute lung injury and/or respiratory distress syndrome) in critically ill patients. The VI is the partial pressure of arterial CO₂ multiplied by the peak airway pressure multiplied by the rate of ventilation, all divided by 1000.

Symbolically, the ventilation index is calculated as follows: VI = [RR x (PIP − PEEP) × PaCo₂]/1000.

2. In environmental science, a measure of air pollution based on the speed of the wind and the height of the column of air in which smoke or other pollutants mix. See also: index
