Insufflation

Surgical Endoscopy, 1995
This article focuses on complications in colonoscopy related to colonic insufflation. Causes of colonic insufflation complications are examined and methods that may be used to minimize complications are proposed. Testing of state-of-the-art video colonoscope systems is the basis of this analysis of insufflation complications and the resulting ...

Tracheal Gas Insufflation

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2000
Tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) is an adjunct to mechanical ventilation that reduces CO (2) present in the anatomic deadspace. This is accomplished by flowing fresh gas (typically 6-10 lpm) directly into the trachea via a catheter placed into the endotracheal tube positioned at the distal end or by an embedded catheter in the wall of a specially ...

Maximum Insufflation Capacity

Chest, 2000
To investigate the effect of deep lung insufflations on maximum insufflation capacities (MICs) and peak cough flows (PCFs) for patients with neuromuscular disease.Forty-three patients with neuromuscular disease were trained in stacking delivered volumes of air to deep lung insufflation and were prescribed a program of air stacking once their vital ...
