Individual response in patient’s effort and driving pressure to variations in assistance during pressure support ventilation

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2023
Background During Pressure Support Ventilation (PSV) an inspiratory hold allows to measure plateau pressure (Pplat), driving pressure (∆P), respiratory system compliance (Crs) and pressure-muscle-index (PMI), an index of inspiratory effort.

Effects of Inspiratory Muscle Warm-Up on Physical Exercise: A Systematic Review

open access: yesBiology, 2023
This study aimed to systematically review the literature to examine the effects of inspiratory-muscle warm-up (IMW) on the inspiratory, metabolic, respiratory and performance parameters of a main exercise performed by athletes and healthy and active ...

Bench experiments comparing simulated inspiratory effort when breathing helium-oxygen mixtures to that during positive pressure support with air

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2012
Background Inhalation of helium-oxygen (He/O2) mixtures has been explored as a means to lower the work of breathing of patients with obstructive lung disease.

Effect of modified high-flow oxygen therapy on positive end-expiratory pressure and end-expiratory lung volume based on simulated lung platform

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of modified high-flow oxygen therapy on end-expiratory lung volume (EELV) and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in tracheotomized patients with normal pulmonary, acute hypoxic respiratory ...

Physiological effects of high-intensity versus low-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation in patients with acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a randomised controlled trial

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2022
Background High-intensity noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NPPV) is a novel ventilatory approach to maximally decreasing elevated arterial carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) toward normocapnia with stepwise up-titration of pressure support.

Model-Based Estimation of Inspiratory Effort Using Surface EMG

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Biomedical Engineering, 2023
The quantification of inspiratory patient effort in assisted mechanical ventilation is essential for the adjustment of ventilatory assistance and for assessing patient-ventilator interaction. The inspiratory effort is usually measured via the respiratory muscle pressure (P mus) derived from esophageal pressure (P es) measurements.

Deficiency of Biogenic Amines Modulates the Activity of Hypoglossal Nerve in the Reserpine Model of Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesCells, 2021
The underlying cause of respiratory impairments appearing in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is still far from being elucidated. To better understand the pathogenesis of respiratory disorders appearing in PD, we studied hypoglossal (HG) and phrenic (PHR ...

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 ...

Nurses' Detection of Ineffective Inspiratory Efforts During Mechanical Ventilation [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Critical Care, 2012
BACKGROUND PATIENT: ventilator dyssynchrony is common and may influence patients' outcomes. Detection of such dyssynchronies relies on careful observation of patients and airway flow and pressure measurements. Given the shortage of specialists, critical care nurses could be trained to identify dyssynchronies.To evaluate the accuracy of specifically ...

Pendelluft in hypoxemic patients resuming spontaneous breathing: proportional modes versus pressure support ventilation

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2023
Background Internal redistribution of gas, referred to as pendelluft, is a new potential mechanism of effort-dependent lung injury. Neurally-adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) and proportional assist ventilation (PAV +) follow the patient’s respiratory ...
