Assessment of ventilation-perfusion mismatching in mechanically ventilated patients [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 1998
The multiple inert gas elimination technique (MIGET) is a robust tool to assess both ventilation-perfusion (V'A/Q') distributions and the role of extrapulmonary factors determining arterial oxygenation during spontaneous breathing and in mechanically ventilated patients.

Critical Events in Mechanically Ventilated Patients [PDF]

, 2016
Mechanical Ventilation is an artificial way to help a Patient to breathe. This procedure is used to support patients with respiratory diseases however in many cases it can provoke lung damages, Acute Respiratory Diseases or organ failure. With the goal to early detect possible patient breath problems a set of limit values was defined to some variables ...

Keratin 19 as a prognostic marker and contributing factor of metastasis and chemoresistance in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Keratin 19 (KRT19) is overexpressed in high‐grade serous ovarian cancer with high levels of Kallikrein‐related peptidases (KLK) 4–7 and is associated with poor survival. In vivo analyses demonstrate that elevated KRT19 increases peritoneal tumour burden.

Accuracy of two pulse-oximetry measurements for INTELLiVENT-ASV in mechanically ventilated patients: a prospective observational study

Scientific Reports, 2021
Recently, maintaining a certain oxygen saturation measured by pulse oximetry (SpO2) range in mechanically ventilated patients was recommended; attaching the INTELLiVENT-ASV to ventilators might be beneficial. We evaluated the SpO2 measurement accuracy of
