The Effect of Prone Position on Right Ventricular Functions in CARDS: Is Survival Predictable when Evaluated Through Transesophageal Echocardiography?

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Anaesthesiology and Reanimation
Objective: To evaluate the cardiopulmonary effect during prone position (PP) on right ventricular (RV) recovery in coronavirus disease-2019 related acute respiratory distress syndrome (C-ARDS) through transesophageal echocardiography (TEE).

LATIHAN NAFAS MODIFIKASI MENIUP BALON TERHADAP PENGEMBANGAN PARU PADA PASIEN HEMATOTHORAKS DAN PNEUMOTHORAKS

open access: yesJurnal Ners, 2017
Collaps is a condition of the absence of air in alveoli. Lung collaps result from the presence of air or blood in the cavity. Modified ballon blowing respiratory exercise is intended to improve lung ventilation,increase vital capacity and preven ...

Oscillatory respiratory impedance and lung tissue compliance

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine, 1994
The respiratory impedance was measured by means of the forced oscillation technique (Landser et al.) and the lung tissue compliance was measured with an oesophageal balloon in 30 patients with a wide range of values of lung tissue compliance. According to the model of respiratory impedance of Nagels et al.

Surfactant alterations and treatment of lung transplant ischemia-reperfusion injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
This review addresses surfactant alterations and treatment in lung transplant ischemia-reperfusion injury. Lung ischemia-reperfusion injury damages the endogenous surfactant system as a result of the production of reactive oxygen species, proteolytic ...

Furosemide: Would it help to improve the lungs as evaluated by sonography and compliance during aortic coarctation surgery

open access: yesAnnals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2019
Background: We evaluated furosemide on attenuating lung injury and/or edema during coarctation repair surgery. We evaluated dynamic lung compliance. We measured the degree of lung edema by means of lung ultrasound (LUS).

Lymphatic function is required prenatally for lung inflation at birth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Mammals must inflate their lungs and breathe within minutes of birth to survive. A key regulator of neonatal lung inflation is pulmonary surfactant, a lipoprotein complex which increases lung compliance by reducing alveolar surface tension (Morgan, 1971)

Review of multidrug-resistant and extensively drug-resistant TB: global perspectives with a focus on sub-Saharan Africa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tuberculosis (TB) remains a global emergency and is responsible for 1.7 million deaths annually. Widespread global misuse of isoniazid and rifampicin over three decades has resulted in emergence of the ominous spread of multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB ...

PEEP titration: the effect of prone position and abdominal pressure in an ARDS model

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2018
Background Prone position and PEEP can both improve oxygenation and other parameters, but their interaction has not been fully described. Limited data directly compare selection of mechanically “optimal” or “best” PEEP in both supine and prone positions,
