Pathophysiological aspects of severe acute pancreatitis-associated lung injury [PDF]

Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2005
Acute pancreatitis is an inflammatory process which occurs in severe form in 20% of all patients, out of whom 1596-25% will die. The incidence of severe acute pancreatitis-associated lung injury (APALI) varies from 15% to 55% and its severity varies from

Use of pressure muscle index to predict the contribution of patient’s inspiratory effort during pressure support ventilation: a prospective physiological study

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundThe successful implementation of assisted ventilation depends on matching the patient’s effort with the ventilator support. Pressure muscle index (PMI), an airway pressure based measurement, has been used as noninvasive monitoring to assess the

Assessing agreement among non-invasive indicators for inspiratory effort during pressure support ventilation

Frontiers in Medicine
BackgroundDuring pressure support ventilation (PSV), the accuracy of non-invasive indicators in diagnosing high or low inspiratory effort has been validated. However, the correlation and agreement of these indicators remain unclear.
