Colonization of oropharynx and lower respiratory tract in critical patients: Risk of ventilator-associated pneumonia
(2018-01-01)
Objective To investigate the microbial diversity existing in oral cavity and respiratory tract samples (from mini-bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), endotracheal aspirate, and orotracheal tube) of patients on mechanical ventilation ...
Electric impedance tomography, the final frontier is close: the bedside reality
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2007-08-01)
Improving natural ventilation in hospital waiting and consulting rooms to reduce nosocomial tuberculosis transmission risk in a low resource setting
(BioMed Central, 2019)
Background: TB transmission in healthcare facilities is an important public health problem, especially in the often-overcrowded settings of HIV treatment scale-up. The problem is compounded by the emergence of drug resistant ...
Pentraxin 3 accelerates lung injury in high tidal volume ventilation in mice
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTDOXFORD, 2012)
Mechanical ventilation is the major cause of iatrogenic lung damage in intensive care units. Although inflammation is known to be involved in ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), several aspects of this process are still ...
Monitoring the electric activity of the diaphragm during noninvasive positive pressure ventilation: a case report
(BioMed Central, 2017)
Abstract
Background
In patients with post-extubation respiratory distress, delayed reintubation may worsen clinical outcomes. Objective measures of extubation failure at ...
Comparison between intermittent mandatory ventilation and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation with pressure support in children
(Sociedade Brasileira de Pediatria, 2009-01-01)
Objective: To compare intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV) with synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation plus pressure support (SIMV+PS) in terms of time on mechanical ventilation, duration of weaning and length ...
Comparison between intermittent mandatory ventilation and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation with pressure support in children
(Sociedade Brasileira de Pediatria, 2009-01-01)
Objective: To compare intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV) with synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation plus pressure support (SIMV+PS) in terms of time on mechanical ventilation, duration of weaning and length ...
Comparative study of pressure- and volume-controlled ventilation on pulse pressure variation in a model of hypovolaemia in rabbits
(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2008)
Background and objective: Dynamic indices represented by systolic pressure variation and pulse pressure variation have been demonstrated to be more accurate than filling pressures in predicting fluid responsiveness. However, ...
Ventilation Patterns Influence Airway Secretion Movement
(DAEDALUS ENTERPRISES INC, 2008)
BACKGROUND: Retention of airway secretions is a common and serious problem in ventilated patients. Treating or avoiding secretion retention with mucus thinning, patient-positioning, airway suctioning, or chest or airway ...
