Non‐invasive ventilation

open access: yesBJA CEPD Reviews, 2001
Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) is a method of respiratory support that is commonly used for the management of a wide range of causes of respiratory failure, both within and without the intensive care unit (ICU). This review will discuss the advantages of this mode of ventilation over more traditional methods, its indications and contra-indications and ...

Development of a composite model derived from cardiopulmonary exercise tests to predict mortality risk in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objective: Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is used to predict outcome in patients with mild-to-moderate heart failure (HF). Single CPET-derived variables are often used, but we wanted to see if a composite score achieved better predictive power ...

Short-term one-lung ventilation does not influence local inflammatory cytokine response after lung resection [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: One-lung ventilation (OLV) is a ventilation procedure used for pulmonary resection which may results in lung injury. The aim of this study was to evaluate the local inflammatory cytokine response from the dependent lung after OLV and its ...
