Effect of modified care bundle for prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia in critically-ill neurosurgical patients [PDF]

Acute and Critical Care, 2021
Background: Care bundles for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) have been shown to minimize the rate of VAP in critically ill patients. Standard care bundles may need to be modified in resource-constrained situations. The goal of this study was to see

High-flow nasal cannula versus noninvasive ventilation in the prevention of escalation to invasive mechanical ventilation in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2022
Background High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) is a device for conveying oxygen therapy. Emerging clinical evidence supports that it may be a compatible alternative for noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in patients with acute hypoxemic respiratory failure (ARF ...
