Trigger performance of mid-level ICU mechanical ventilators during assisted ventilation: a bench study
(SPRINGER, 2008)
Objective: To compare the triggering performance of mid-level ICU mechanical ventilators with a standard ICU mechanical ventilator. Design: Experimental bench study. Setting: The respiratory care laboratory of a ...
Respiratory drive, inspiratory effort, and work of breathing: review of definitions and non-invasive monitoring tools for intensive care ventilators during pandemic times
(2022)
Technological advances in mechanical ventilation have been essential to increasing the survival rate in intensive care units. Usually, patients needing mechanical ventilation use controlled ventilation to override the ...
High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation Associated With Inhaled Nitric Oxide Compared to Pressure-Controlled Assist/Control Ventilation and Inhaled Nitric Oxide in Children: Randomized, Non-Blinded, Crossover Study
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2011-08-01)
Purpose: To compare the acute oxygenation effects of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) plus inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) with pressure-controlled assist/control ventilation (PCACV) plus iNO in acute hypoxemic ...
How is mechanical ventilation employed in the intensive care unit? An international utilization review
(AMER THORACIC SOC, 2000)
A 1-d point-prevalence study was performed with the aim of describing the characteristics of conventional mechanical ventilation in intensive care units ICUs from North America, South America Spain, and Portugal. The study ...
Variability of neurally-adjusted ventilatory assist (nava) compared to pressure support ventilation (psv) during the weaning phase of mechanical ventilation.
(ATS JournalsNova Iorque, 2013)
Rationale: NAVA is an assisted ventilatory mode that uses the electrical activity of the diaphragm (Edi) to trigger and cycle the ventilator,
and to offer inspiratory assistance in proportion to patient effort. Since Edi ...
Pendelluft in hypoxemic patients resuming spontaneous breathing: proportional modes versus pressure support ventilation
(2023)
Background: Internal redistribution of gas, referred to as pendelluft, is a new potential mechanism of effort-dependent lung injury. Neurally-adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) and proportional assist ventilation (PAV +) ...
Assessing swallowing disorders in adults on high-flow nasal cannula in critical and non-critical care settings. A scoping review protocol
(Public Library of Science, 2023-10)
Introduction The high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) has become a widely used respiratory support system, which has proven to be effective in different populations. The facilitation of oral communication and feeding have been ...
Patient-ventilator asynchrony in conventional ventilation modes during short-term mechanical ventilation after cardiac surgery: Randomized clinical trial
(2020-01-28)
Introduction and aim: Studies regarding asynchrony in patiients in the cardiac postoperative period are still only a few. The main objective of our study was to compare asynchronies incidence and its index (AI) in 3 different ...
Assisted ventilation modes reduce the expression of lung inflammatory and fibrogenic mediators in a model of mild acute lung injury
(SPRINGER, 2010)
The goal of the study was to compare the effects of different assisted ventilation modes with pressure controlled ventilation (PCV) on lung histology, arterial blood gases, inflammatory and fibrogenic mediators in experimental ...
