Severe bronchospasm and acute respiratory failure associated with inhaled prostacyclin therapy
Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 14, Issue 2, April 2024.Abstract Prostacyclin therapy is a mainstay of the management of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Inhaled prostacyclins present safe and effective options for the management of PAH that limit systemic side effects. We describe the first reported case of life‐threatening bronchospasm and acute respiratory failure associated with inhaled ...

European Journal of Cancer Care, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.Objective. Lung cancer (LC) patients suffer from multiple cooccurring symptoms. Interventions that have the potential to impact more than one symptom within a symptom cluster should be identified. The aim of this review was to examine nonpharmacological interventions that were effective in the management of one or more of the following symptoms in LC ...

Heliox inhalation therapy for bronchiolitis in infants
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2008 Acute viral bronchiolitis is associated with airway obstruction and turbulent gas flow. Heliox, a mixture of oxygen and the inert gas helium, may improve gas flow through high-resistance airways and decrease the work of breathing.To assess heliox in addition to standard medical care for acute bronchiolitis in infants.We searched the Cochrane Central ...

Si/SiGe quantum dot with superconducting single-electron transistor charge sensor
, 2011 We report a robust process for fabrication of surface-gated Si/SiGe quantum dots (QDs) with an integrated superconducting single-electron transistor (S-SET) charge sensor. A combination of a deep mesa etch and AlOx backfill is used to reduce gate leakage.
