Mechanical ventilation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: a cross-cultural perspective

Journal of Neurology, 1998
Mechanical ventilation is known to be an effective means of relieving symptoms of chronic hypoventilation and prolonging life in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Various methods of mechanical ventilation are available to patients with ALS.

Changes in Low Profile Cross Ventilated Dairy Facilities

2009 Reno, Nevada, June 21 - June 24, 2009, 2009
The performance of an evaporative cooling system was evaluated in the High Plains region on a low profile cross ventilated dairy facility housing 4,200 lactating cows. The evaporative pad was 3 m (10 ft) tall and approximately 426 m (1,400 ft) long. Temperature and humidity data were collected every 15 minutes at three locations each baffles in the ...

Re-Evaluating Cross-Contamination: Additional Trials on Co-Ventilation

The Journal of Emergency Medicine
Medical equipment can become scarce in disaster scenarios. Prior work has reported that four sheep could be ventilated together on a single ventilator. Others found that this maneuver is possible when needed, but no one has yet investigated whether cross-contamination occurs in co-ventilated individuals.Our goal was to investigate whether an infection ...

Randomized cross‐over trial of ventilator modes during non‐invasive ventilation titration in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Respirology, 2017
ABSTRACT Background and objectiveNon‐invasive ventilation (NIV) improves survival, quality of life and sleep in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Nevertheless, NIV titration is conducted in different ways. We aim to provide more insight into NIV titration by comparing the effects of a spontaneous (S) and spontaneous‐timed (ST) modes ...

Windows design for maximum cross-ventilation in buildings

Advances in Building Energy Research, 2016
ABSTRACTComputational Fluid Dynamics numerical analysis is performed to investigate the ventilation performance and the internal thermal environment of naturally ventilated buildings. Several alternative scenarios are generated by varying the size of openings with different configurations of orientation and solar shading.

Cross-Gyre Ventilation of the Subtropical Gyre: An Internal Mode in the Ventilated Thermocline

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1984
Abstract A model of cross-gyre geostrophic flow is presented. It is a two-layer model of the (Northern Hemisphere) subtropical thermocline above a resting lower ocean. The northern boundary of the gyre is taken to be a latitude circle on which the Ekman pumping vanishes.

Development of CO2 Balance for Estimation of Ventilation Rate in Naturally Cross-Ventilated Dairy Barns

Transactions of the ASABE, 2014
Abstract. The determination of ventilation rates through naturally ventilated livestock barns is complicated and shows large uncertainties. One key issue is to develop further the measurement methods. Experiments were performed to study air exchange rates (AER) occurring in a naturally ventilated dairy barn during spring seasons.
