Robotic approach to Morgagni-Larrey hernia in pediatric surgery: a case report

Atti della Accademia Peloritana dei Pericolanti - Classe di Scienze Medico-Biologiche, 2022
Morgagni-Larrey hernias represent a subgroup of Congenital diaphragmatic hernias (CDHs), involving the anterior part of the muscle. They are complex developmental defects often representing a diagnostic and treatment challenge for both pediatricians and ...

A narrative review of diaphragm ultrasound to predict weaning from mechanical ventilation: where are we and where are we heading?

The Ultrasound Journal, 2019
BackgroundThe use of ultrasound to visualize the diaphragm is well established. Over the last 15 years, certain indices of diaphragm function, namely diaphragm thickness, thickening fraction and excursion have been established for mechanically ventilated

Diaphragm sniff ultrasound: Normal values, relationship with sniff nasal pressure and accuracy for predicting respiratory involvement in patients with neuromuscular disorders.

PLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundIn patients with neuromuscular disorders, assessment of respiratory function relies on forced vital capacity (FVC) measurements. Providing complementary respiratory outcomes may be useful for clinical trials.

Rapid disuse atrophy of diaphragm fibers in mechanically ventilated humans.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2008
BACKGROUND The combination of complete diaphragm inactivity and mechanical ventilation (for more than 18 hours) elicits disuse atrophy of myofibers in animals. We hypothesized that the same may also occur in the human diaphragm.

Mathematical Modelling and Comparative Study of Elliptical and Circular Capacitive Pressure Microsensor [PDF]

, 2019
A lot of work on clamped circular, square and rectangular shaped capacitive pressure sensor has been carried out. However, to the best of our knowledge, no elaborate work has been performed on mathematical formulation and simulation of clamped elliptical shaped capacitive pressure sensor in literature.
