Physiological Aspects of Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation [PDF]
The mechanical properties of the lungs and chest wall dictate the relationship between tidal volume, flow rate and airway pressure developed during intermittent positive pressure ventilation (IPPV). The increase in intrathoracic pressures associated with IPPV has consequences for the intrapulmonary distribution of ventilation and perfusion (hence gas ...

Determinants of effective ventilation during nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation [PDF]
Our aim was to verify in healthy subjects submitted to nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (nIPPV) with a volumetric ventilator on controlled mode, whether changes in ventilator settings (delivered tidal volume (VT), respiratory frequency (fR) and inspiratory flow (V'I) could influence effective minute ventilation (V'E), thus allowing ...

Current insights in non-invasive ventilation for the treatment of neonatal respiratory disease
Deleterious consequences of the management of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) with invasive ventilation have led to more in-depth investigation of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) modalities.

A fresh look at paralytics in the critically ill: real promise and real concern. [PDF]
Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs), or "paralytics," often are deployed in the sickest patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) when usual care fails.

A Comparison between Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation and Nasal Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Ventilation in the Treatment of Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome [PDF]
Background: Nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) is a non-invasive ventilatory mode, which delivers mechanical ventilation via nasal tubes or prongs.

What is new in ventilation strategies for the neonate? [PDF]
A large number of ventilation strategies are now available for the neonate. This review has focused on new information, that is, studies published since 2000 and the implication of their results for current clinical practice.

Predictive significance of the six-minute walk distance for long-term survival in chronic hypercapnic respiratory failure [PDF]
Background: The 6-min walk distance ( 6-MWD) is a global marker of functional capacity and prognosis in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD), but less explored in other chronic respiratory diseases.
