Effects of inhaled bronchodilators on dynamic lung mechanics during exercise in COPD: protocol for a randomised, placebo-controlled crossover trial

ERJ Open Research
Background Activity-related dyspnoea in moderate–severe COPD is centrally related to heightened wasted ventilation in the physiological dead space colliding with constraints to tidal expansion due to acute-on-chronic gas trapping.

The invasive and non-invasive monitoring of inspiratory effort and drive during assisted mechanical ventilation

Annals of Intensive Care
Background: In patients with respiratory failure, assisted mechanical ventilation is often used after the initial acute phase to support patient’s respiratory activity, enhance oxygen exchange, and improve lung ventilation and perfusion.

A study of urinary catheter encrustation in patients with Proteus urinary tract infection. [PDF]

, 2007
The most common cause of encrustation and blockage of long term urinary catheters is colonisation of the urinary tract by Proteus spp. However, the degree of encrustation experienced by those with Proteus colonisation differs markedly between ...

Effects of airway closure on pulmonary gas exchange

, 1970
Effects of airway closure on pulmonary gas exchange were examined in 22 healthy subjects. Airway closure was assessed by a single-breath N2 technique, gas exchange by A-aD02, venous admixture, and cardiac output (dye-dilution).

Iatrogenic Bowel Injury at Exchange of Supra-Pubic Catheter

, 2018
Suprapubic catheter insertion and exchange is a common urological procedure, but it is not without risks and complications. While bowel perforation is a recognised complication at suprapubic catheter insertion, it is not commonly reported at suprapubic ...

Clinical uses of high frequency jet ventilation in anaesthesia

, 1989
Since 1981, high frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) has been used in 300 patients undergoing surgery, most commonly during i.v. general anaesthesia for endoscopy and surgery of the airways: laryngoscopy, bronchoscopy, laryngeal microsurgery and laser ...

Catheter Patency and Function after Catheter Sheath Disruption

, 2007
Background and objectives: Hemodialysis catheters are frequently complicated by dysfunction from fibrin sheaths. Previous studies of sheath disruption have methodologic limitations but suggest that the patency after disruption is short.
