Identifying asynchronies: Ineffective effort

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2022
Mechanical ventilation is a common issue in critically ill patients. It is a lifesaving treatment but also can cause some complications. Patient-ventilator asynchronies are frequent but are often underdiagnosed and they are a serious problem that is ...

Effects of high-flow nasal cannula and non-invasive ventilation on inspiratory effort in hypercapnic patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a preliminary study. [PDF]

open access: yesAnn Intensive Care, 2019
BackgroundNon-invasive ventilation (NIV) is preferred as the initial ventilatory support to treat acute hypercapnic respiratory failure in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Not too much, not too little. Titrating flow rate to minimise inspiratory effort during helmet CPAP: A bench study

open access: yesPulmonology
Background Non-invasive helmet respiratory support is suitable for several clinical conditions. Continuous-flow helmet CPAP systems equipped with HEPA filters have become popular during the recent Coronavirus pandemic.

Effect of acute and chronic pressure-threshold inspiratory muscle training on upper and lower airway function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.There is evidence to suggest that inspiratory muscle training (IMT) may influence the functional properties of the muscles of the upper (UA) and lower (LA ...

Inspiratory muscle activation increases with COPD severity as confirmed by non-invasive mechanomyographic analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
There is a lack of instruments for assessing respiratory muscle activation during the breathing cycle in clinical conditions. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the usefulness of the respiratory muscle mechanomyogram (MMG) for non-invasively ...

Impact of positive biphasic pressure during low and high inspiratory efforts in Pseudomonas aeruginosa-induced pneumonia.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
BackgroundDuring pneumonia, normal alveolar areas coexist adjacently with consolidated areas, and high inspiratory efforts may predispose to lung damage. To date, no study has evaluated different degrees of effort during Biphasic positive airway pressure

Model-Based Estimation of Inspiratory Effort Using Surface EMG

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2022
Objective: The quantification of inspiratory patient effort in assisted mechanical ventilation is essential for the adjustment of ventilatory assistance and for assessing patient-ventilator interaction.

Neural control of pressure support ventilation improved patient-ventilator synchrony in patients with different respiratory system mechanical properties: a prospective, crossover trial

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2021
. Background. Conventional pressure support ventilation (PSP) is triggered and cycled off by pneumatic signals such as flow. Patient-ventilator asynchrony is common during pressure support ventilation, thereby contributing to an increased inspiratory ...
