Positive end-expiratory pressure improves elastic working pressure in anesthetized children
(2018)
Background
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) has been demonstrated to decrease ventilator-induced lung injury in patients under mechanical ventilation (MV) for acute respiratory failure. Recently, some studies have ...
Effects of the positive end-expiratory pressure increase on sublingual microcirculation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome
(Elsevier Science Inc, 2017)
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of increased positive end-expiratory pressure on the sublingual microcirculation. Methods: Adult patients who were sedated, under mechanical ventilation, and had ...
Feasibility of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in the treatment of oxygen-dependent COVID-19 patients in Peru
(American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene, 2021)
Intensive care is expensive, and availability is limited. Low- and middle-income countries in particular have struggled to cope with the large influx of critically ill patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. Noninvasive ...
An assessment of esophageal balloon use for the titration of airway pressure release ventilation and controlled mechanical ventilation in a patient with extrapulmonary acute respiratory distress syndrome: a case report
(BioMed Central Ltd, 2021-12)
Background: Esophageal pressure measurement is a minimally invasive monitoring process that assesses respiratory mechanics in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome. Airway pressure release ventilation is a ...
Anatomical and functional intrapulmonary shunt in acute respiratory distress syndrome
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2008)
Objectives. The lung-protective strategy employs positive end expiratory pressure to keep open otherwise collapsed lung regions (anatomical recruitment). Improvement in venous admixture with positive end-expiratory pressure ...
Ventilator-Induced Lung Injury (VILI) in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS): Volutrauma and Molecular Effects
(Bentham Science Publishers B.V., 2015)
© Carrasco Loza et al.; Licensee Bentham Open. Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) is a clinical condition secondary to a variety of insults leading to a severe acute respiratory failure and high mortality in ...
A lung computed tomographic assessment of positive end-expiratory pressure-induced lung overdistension
(1998-12-01)
The aim of this study was to assess positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)-induced lung overdistension and alveolar recruitment in six patients with acute lung injury (ALI) using a computed tomographic (CT) scan method. ...
A lung computed tomographic assessment of positive end-expiratory pressure-induced lung overdistension
(1998-12-01)
The aim of this study was to assess positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP)-induced lung overdistension and alveolar recruitment in six patients with acute lung injury (ALI) using a computed tomographic (CT) scan method. ...
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 ...
Effect of positive end-expiratory pressure on lung injury and haemodynamics during experimental acute respiratory distress syndrome treated with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and near-apnoeic ventilation
(Elsevier, 2021)
Background: Lung rest has been recommended during extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Whether positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) confers lung protection ...
