Lung volume recruitment maneuvers and respiratory system mechanics in mechanically ventilated mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The study aim was to establish how recruitment maneuvers (RMs) influence lung mechanics and to determine whether RMs produce lung injury. Healthy BALB/c mice were allocated to receive positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) at 2 or 6 cmH2O and volume ...

High tidal volume ventilation is not deleterious in infant rats exposed to severe hemorrhage [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Both high tidal volume (VT) ventilation and hemorrhage induce acute lung injury in adult rodents. It is not known whether injurious ventilation augments lung injury in infant rats exposed to severe hemorrhage.

Air Trapping and the Risk of COPD Exacerbation: Analysis From Prospective KOCOSS Cohort

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2022
Background and AimsAir trapping is a predictive index for a decline in lung function and mortality in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the role of air trapping in COPD exacerbation has rarely been studied.
