Veno-Venous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for High-Risk Airway Interventions: A Safety-Net Hospital Case Series. [PDF]
This case series describes three patients with critical airway obstruction who safely underwent high‐risk therapeutic airway interventions using planned veno‐venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV‐ECMO) support at a safety‐net hospital. These cases highlight VV‐ECMO as a proactive adjunct that can expand access to advanced airway interventions ...

Heliox for croup in children [PDF]
Croup is an acute viral respiratory infection with upper airway mucosal inflammation that may cause respiratory distress. Most cases are mild. Moderate to severe croup may require treatment with corticosteroids (the benefits of which are often delayed) and nebulised epinephrine (adrenaline) (the benefits of which may be short-lived and which can cause ...

Contrasting the physiological effects of heliox and oxygen during exercise in a patient with advanced COPD [PDF]
In COPD patients the ergogenic effect of heliox or oxygen breathing might be related both to improvements in ventilatory parameters (that lessen dyspnoea) and to enhanced oxygen delivery to respiratory and locomotor ...

Abstract Exercise intolerance and exertional dyspnoea are the cardinal symptoms of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). In HFrEF, abnormal autonomic and cardiopulmonary responses arising from locomotor muscle group III/IV afferent feedback is one of the primary mechanisms contributing to exercise intolerance.
