Tracheostomy in mechanical ventilation

Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2012
Airway access for mechanical ventilation (MV) can be provided either by orotracheal intubation (OTI) or tracheostomy tube. During episodes of acute respiratory failure, patients are commonly ventilated through an orotracheal tube that represents an easy and rapid initial placement of the airway device.

Mechanical Ventilation

DICP, 1990
Among the many advances made in intensive care therapeutics in recent years, few have rivaled the impact of mechanical ventilators. Their expanded use affects all who practice in the critical care setting. This article reviews the physiologic basis for mechanical ventilation, how ventilators are classified, the various modes, and specific indications.

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

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 ...

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 ...
