Novel mechanical ventilator weaning predictive model [PDF]

open access: yesKaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a common life support system in intensive care units. Accurate identification of patients who are capable of being extubated can shorten the MV duration and potentially reduce MV‐related complications. Therefore, prediction

Power to mechanical power to minimize ventilator-induced lung injury? [PDF]

open access: goldIntensive Care Medicine Experimental, 2019
Mechanical ventilation is a life-supportive therapy, but can also promote damage to pulmonary structures, such as epithelial and endothelial cells and the extracellular matrix, in a process referred to as ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI).

Correlation of red cell distribution width value with the duration of mechanical ventilator usage in patients treated in pediatric intensive care unit

open access: diamondBali Journal of Anesthesiology, 2020
Background: Red cell distribution width (RDW) is the coefficient of erythrocyte volume variation. High RDW may indicate heterogeneous erythrocyte size in terms of size and volume (anisocytosis). RDW is affected by the degree of hypoxic tissue; the higher

Patient-Ventilator Dyssynchrony [PDF]

open access: yesKorean Journal of Critical Care Medicine, 2017
In mechanically ventilated patients, assisted mechanical ventilation (MV) is employed early, following the acute phase of critical illness, in order to eliminate the detrimental effects of controlled MV, most notably the development of ventilator-induced
