Trolox Attenuates Mechanical Ventilation–induced Diaphragmatic Dysfunction and Proteolysis [PDF]
Prolonged mechanical ventilation results in diaphragmatic oxida-tive injury, elevated proteolysis, fiber atrophy, and reduced force-generating capacity. We tested the hypothesis that antioxidant infusion during mechanical ventilation would function as an

Minimizing Asynchronies in Mechanical Ventilation: Current and Future Trends
Patient-ventilator asynchrony exists when the phases of breath delivered by the ventilator do not match those of the patient. Asynchronies occur throughout mechanical ventilation and negatively affect patient comfort, duration of mechanical ventilation ...

Advances in mechanical ventilation [PDF]
Although a considerable amount of experimental data exists, preliminary clinical studies of pressure and volume limited ventilation have not established its role and benefit in patients with acute lung injury. Indeed, there are no controlled studies that prove any form of mechanical ventilation is superior to another in ARDS.
