Nasal Intermittent Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV) is an effective therapy for infants in respiratory distress. We here report the safety of a novel, low-cost, non-electric bubble NIPPV device in comparison with bubble NCPAP.

Abstract The magnitude of progressive augmentation (PA) and ventilatory long‐term facilitation (vLTF) are two forms of respiratory plasticity that are enhanced in some humans with obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA). This response might be linked to repeated nocturnal exposure to intermittent hypoxia or other traits connected to OSA.

Background/Objectives: We investigated multimodal strategies to reduce neonatal ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) and antimicrobial use across three periods: period 1 (2014–2017), environmental cleaning with sodium hypochlorite, installation of heat ...

Role of spontaneous breathing trial in predicting successful extubation in premature infants [PDF]
Background The ability of clinicians to predict successful extubation in mechanically ventilated premature neonates is limited. Identifying objective criteria for predicting successful extubation may reduce the incidence of failed extubation and the ...

Noninvasive ventilation has become a staple in the care of premature infants. However, failure rates continue to be high in this population. Modifications to noninvasive support, such as nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV), are used ...

Abstract Acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) can increase maximal strength of limb muscles in people with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI), but it is mostly untested in people without SCI. Acute intermittent hypercapnia (AIC) may engage similar respiratory circuits to AIH, but the effects of AIC on human limb motor output are unknown.

Therapeutic alternatives with CPAP in obstructive sleep apnea [PDF]
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), characterized by airflow cessation (apnea) or reduction (hypopnea) due to repeated pharyngeal obstructions during sleep, causes frequent disruption of sleep and hypoxic events. The condition is linked to many adverse health

Pneumoperitoneum in two cats treated with trilostane for hypercortisolism
Abstract This report describes two cases of pneumoperitoneum in cats receiving treatment for hypercortisolism and diabetes mellitus. Both cats presented with abdominal distention and lethargy and diagnoses of pneumoperitoneum were radiographically confirmed.

Risk Factors for Extubation Failure following Neonatal Cardiac Surgery [PDF]
Objective: Extubation failure after neonatal cardiac surgery has been associated with considerable postoperative morbidity, although data identifying risk factors for its occurrence are sparse. We aimed to determine risk factors for extubation failure in
