Volume Targeted Ventilation and High Frequency Ventilation as the Primary Modes of Respiratory Support for ELBW Babies: What Does the Evidence Say? [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Respiratory management of the extremely low birth weight (ELBW) newborn has evolved over time. Although non-invasive ventilation is being increasingly used for respiratory support in these ELBW infants, invasive ventilation still remains the primary mode

Gas transport mechanisms during high-frequency ventilation [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Research
By virtue of applying small tidal volumes, high-frequency ventilation is advocated as a method of minimizing ventilator-induced lung injury. Lung protective benefits are established in infants, but not in other patient cohorts.

The impact of early high-frequency ventilation uses in Brazilian preterm infants: an initiative to improve healthcare [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Paulista de Pediatria
Objective: High-frequency ventilation (HFV) is often used when conventional methods fail. Some studies suggest early HFV intervention might benefit infants with severe lung issues. This study compares early HFV at initial signs of respiratory distress to

The Physiological Basis of High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation and Current Evidence in Adults and Children: A Narrative Review

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) is a type of invasive mechanical ventilation that employs supra-physiologic respiratory rates and low tidal volumes (VT) that approximate the anatomic deadspace.

Unsuccessful and Successful Clinical Trials in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome: Addressing Physiology-Based Gaps

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a severe form of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure caused by an insult to the alveolar-capillary membrane, resulting in a marked reduction of aerated alveoli, increased vascular permeability and ...

Linking ventilation heterogeneity quantified via hyperpolarized He-3 MRI to dynamic lung mechanics and airway hyperresponsiveness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Advancements in hyperpolarized helium-3 MRI (HP 3He-MRI) have introduced the ability to render and quantify ventilation patterns throughout the anatomic regions of the lung. The goal of this study was to establish how ventilation heterogeneity relates to

Prone position: Does it help with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: Lung protective ventilation therapy with low tidal volume-high PEEP is the standard treatment for the patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

High Frequency Oscilatory Ventilation – Current update

open access: yesJournal of Pediatric Critical Care, 2015
This article intends to review literature on high frequency oscillatory ventilation and describe its main clinical applications for children. There is increasing evidence that strategies aimed at preventing ventilator-induced lung injury, such as ...

Inhaled particle counts on bicycle commute routes of low and high proximity to motorised traffic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Frequent exposure to ultrafine particles (UFP) is associated with detrimental effects on cardiopulmonary function and health. UFP dose and therefore the associated health risk are a factor of exposure frequency, duration, and magnitude of (therefore also

High-frequency oscillatory ventilation in pediatric acute hypoxemic respiratory failure: disease-specific morbidity survival analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
BackgroundMultiple ventilatory strategies for acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (AHRF) in children have been advocated, including high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV).
