Mechanical ventilator flow and pressure sensors: Does location matter?

open access: yesJournal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2023
Introduction Accurate measurements of ventilatory outputs are crucial during mechanical ventilation support. These measurements are achieved through sensors that monitor parameters such as flow/volumes and pressures. External and internal flow sensors

Effect of dynamic random leaks on the monitoring accuracy of home mechanical ventilators: a bench study. [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Pulm Med, 2013
BackgroundSo far, the accuracy of tidal volume (VT) and leak measures provided by the built-in software of commercial home ventilators has only been tested using bench linear models with fixed calibrated and continuous leaks.

Scoring System to Evaluate the Performance of ICU Ventilators in the Pandemic of COVID-19: A Lung Model Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
Ventilators in the intensive care units (ICU) are life-support devices that help physicians to gain additional time to cure the patients. The aim of the study was to establish a scoring system to evaluate the ventilator performance in the context of ...

Mechanical ventilation of mice [PDF]

open access: yesBasic Research in Cardiology, 2000
Due to growing interest in murine functional genomics research, there is an increasing need for physiological stable in vivo murine models. Of special importance is support and control of ventilation by artificial respiration, which is difficult to execute as a consequence of the small size of the animal and the technically demanding breathing pattern.

Indications and practical approach to non-invasive ventilation in acute heart failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In acute heart failure (AHF) syndromes significant respiratory failure (RF) is essentially seen in patients with acute cardiogenic pulmonary oedema (ACPE) or cardiogenic shock (CS).

Design and performance of a flow sensor CoroQuant used with emergency lung ventilator CoroVent during COVID-19 pandemic

open access: yesMeasurement: Sensors, 2022
At the time of COVID-19 pandemic onset in spring 2020 a project CoroVent was initiated with the aim to design and produce emergency lung ventilators and distribute them to hospitals. No flow and tidal volume sensors were available for the project.

Increasing compliance with low tidal volume ventilation in the ICU with two nudge-based interventions: evaluation through intervention time-series analyses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Objectives: Low tidal volume (TVe) ventilation improves outcomes for ventilated patients, and the majority of clinicians state they implement it. Unfortunately, most patients never receive low TVes.
