Mechanical Ventilation to Minimize Progression of Lung Injury in Acute Respiratory Failure.

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2017
Mechanical ventilation is used to sustain life in patients with acute respiratory failure. A major concern in mechanically ventilated patients is the risk of ventilator-induced lung injury, which is partially prevented by lung-protective ventilation ...

Mechanical ventilation for children

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2016
The aim of this review is to analyze innovative data pertaining to the clinical use of mechanical ventilation for children.The optimal definition and treatment of pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome, the application of innovative ventilation modes in children to optimize child/ventilator interaction, and pediatric noninvasive ventilation ...

Ventilation and Respiratory Mechanics

Comprehensive Physiology, 2012
AbstractDuring dynamic exercise, the healthy pulmonary system faces several major challenges, including decreases in mixed venous oxygen content and increases in mixed venous carbon dioxide. As such, the ventilatory demand is increased, while the rising cardiac output means that blood will have considerably less time in the pulmonary capillaries to ...

Opioids and Mechanical Ventilation

Current Drug Targets, 2009
In last years opioids have been increasingly utilized to sedate patients during mechanical ventilation. First, in Hypnotic Based Sedation (HBS), they were added to hypnotics because of their analgesic properties. Successively, in Analgesic Based Sedation (ABS), both sedative and analgesic properties were utilized and opioids were given alone; hypnotics

Noninvasive mechanical ventilation

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2012
A critical review of the most recent literature regarding use and clinical indications of noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIV).According to several randomized controlled trials, NIV has gained acceptance as the preferred ventilatory modality to treat acute respiratory failure (ARF) due to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations ...

Arterial Pulse Pressure Variation with Mechanical Ventilation

American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2019
Fluid administration leads to a significant increase in cardiac output in only half of ICU patients. This has led to the concept of assessing fluid responsiveness before infusing fluid.

Mechanical ventilators and ventilator testers

2004
In the human organism, the respiratory function is involuntary and essential to life. At times, however, as in surgical operations using general anesthesia or as a result of respiratory insufficiency, the patient needs help breathing. In the first case, the general anesthesia completely stops the thoracic muscles and a mechanical ventilator is needed ...

Innovations in Mechanical Ventilation

Respiratory Care, 2009
New features of mechanical ventilators are frequently introduced, including new modes, monitoring techniques, and triggering techniques. But new rarely translates into any measureable improvement in outcome. We describe 4 new techniques and attempt to define what is a new invention versus what is innovative-a technique that significantly improves a ...
