Mechanical power in pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome: a PARDIE study

Critical Care, 2022
Background Mechanical power is a composite variable for energy transmitted to the respiratory system over time that may better capture risk for ventilator-induced lung injury than individual ventilator management components.

Ventilator circuits mechanics and ventilator compensation [PDF]

Introduction Invasive mechanical ventilation usually uses a double limb circuit. However, those circuits are not standardized and usually come from different manufacturers with different lengths, diameters, compliances and resistances.

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

, 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.

Design for a Squirrel Cage Fan with Double Arc Blade

Journal of Applied Fluid Mechanics, 2020
Squirrel cage fans are commonly used in HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems. The single arc blade model is commonly used in this type of fans since it can be shaped simply only by two parameters of inlet and outlet angle of blade ...

Risk factors for ventilator-associated pneumonia in trauma patients with torso injury: a retrospective single-center study

Journal of International Medical Research, 2021
Objective We aimed to identify the risk factors for ventilator-associated pneumonia in patients admitted to critical care after a torso injury. Methods We retrospectively evaluated 178 patients with torso injury aged >15 years who were intubated in the ...

The selection of a mechanical ventilator [PDF]

Canadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1959
(1) An attempt has been made to discuss the elementary physiological requirements of a mechanical ventilator. (2) The types of machine available are grouped and it is shown that volume constant-pressure variable machmes provide the most satisfactory ventilation.

Accuracy of ventilator-associated events for the diagnosis of ventilator-associated lower respiratory tract infections

Annals of Intensive Care, 2020
Background The aim of this study was to investigate the concordance between ventilator-associated events (VAE) and ventilator-associated lower respiratory tract infections (VA-LRTI), and their impact on outcome.

Complications of mechanical ventilation

Srpski arhiv za celokupno lekarstvo, 2011
Mechanical ventilation of the lungs, as an important therapeutic measure, cannot be avoided in critically ill patients. However, when machines take over some of vital functions there is always a risk of complications and accidents. Complications associated with mechanical ventilation can be divided into: 1) airway-associated complications ...

Nicotinamide exacerbates hypoxemia in ventilator-induced lung injury independent of neutrophil infiltration. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
BACKGROUND:Ventilator-induced lung injury is a form of acute lung injury that develops in critically ill patients on mechanical ventilation and has a high degree of mortality. Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase is an enzyme that is highly upregulated
