Comparing the effect of using normal saline, N-acetyl cysteine and not using them in endotracheal tube suction on physiologic parameters and the amount of secretions in intubated patients under mechanical ventilation [PDF]
Aims: Today a large number of patients hospitalized in Intensive Care Unit need mechanical ventilation via an artificial air way. Since these patients have endotracheal tube, endotracheal suctioning is necessary for increasing oxygenation, cleaning the ...

ABSTRACT Self‐expandable metallic and plastic stents have been used for biliary tract injuries, but they are not entirely adequate as treatments. This study investigated the potential of our novel self‐expandable bioabsorbable covered stent (SEBCS) to treat bile duct injuries. We developed a novel SEBCS by covering a self‐expandable bioabsorbable stent
