Understanding cardiopulmonary interactions through esophageal pressure monitoring [PDF]
Esophageal pressure is the closest estimate of pleural pressure. Changes in esophageal pressure reflect changes in intrathoracic pressure and affect transpulmonary pressure, both of which have multiple effects on right and left ventricular performance ...

Esophageal pressure as estimation of pleural pressure: a study in a model of eviscerated chest [PDF]
Background Transpulmonary pressure is the effective pressure across the lung parenchyma and has been proposed as a guide for mechanical ventilation. The pleural pressure is challenging to directly measure in clinical setting and esophageal manometry ...

Esophageal pressure monitoring for airway management during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation [PDF]
Background: Respiratory management during catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF) is important for the efficacy and safety of the procedure. Obstructive apnea due to an upper airway obstruction might cause serious complications including air ...

Novel method of transpulmonary pressure measurement with an air-filled esophageal catheter
Background There is a strong rationale for proposing transpulmonary pressure-guided protective ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome. The reference esophageal balloon catheter method requires complex in vivo calibration, expertise and ...
