Being put on a ventilator means that a patient is placed on a machine that assists or takes over their breathing when they are unable to breathe adequately on their own. This device delivers oxygen to the lungs and removes carbon dioxide, helping to maintain proper gas exchange in the body. Ventilators are often used in critical care settings for patients with severe respiratory issues, such as those caused by pneumonia, COVID-19, or other serious illnesses.
In surgery, they are used to prepare patients for intubation before being placed on a ventilator and to suppress the patient's spontaneous breathing once on a ventilator.
What do you mean by put out
Because of the air being forced thru the water to keep it humidified.

Being on a ventilator carries several risks, including lung injury from mechanical ventilation (ventilator-induced lung injury), infections such as pneumonia due to prolonged intubation, and complications related to sedation and immobilization. Patients may also experience barotrauma, which is damage to the lungs caused by excessive pressure, and psychological effects, such as anxiety or post-traumatic stress. Additionally, prolonged ventilation can lead to muscle weakness and difficulties in weaning off the ventilator.
Being on a ventilator can lead to several side effects, including lung injury from mechanical ventilation, muscle weakness due to prolonged immobility, and potential infections such as ventilator-associated pneumonia. Patients may also experience anxiety, confusion, or delirium due to sedation and the stressful nature of being on life support. Additionally, there can be complications related to the airway, such as damage to the vocal cords or trachea. Long-term effects may include difficulty weaning off the ventilator and ongoing respiratory issues.
