Conventional Mechanical Ventilation

Saudi Journal of Anaesthesia, 2010
The provision of mechanical ventilation for the support of infants and children with respiratory failure or insufficiency is one of the most common techniques that are performed in the Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU). Despite its widespread application in the PICUs of the 21st century, before the 1930s, respiratory failure was uniformly fatal due ...

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

Bali 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
