Comparison of two devices and two breathing patterns for exhaled breath condensate sampling. [PDF]
, 2011 Analysis of exhaled breath condensate (EBC) is a noninvasive method to access the epithelial lining fluid of the lungs. Due to standardization problems the method has not entered clinical practice. The aim of the study was to assess the comparability for

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.Objectives Ultrasound competency is critical in modern healthcare, yet no standardized framework currently supports ultrasound skill monitoring across diverse clinical settings and user types. Existing frameworks often lack generalizability, overemphasize exam counts, and fail to assess key skills such as interpretation, limiting ultrasound's safe and ...

Noninvasive ventilation in acute respiratory failure: which recipe for success?
European Respiratory Review, 2018 Noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation (NPPV) to treat acute respiratory failure has expanded tremendously over the world in terms of the spectrum of diseases that can be successfully managed, the locations of its application and achievable goals. The

Relationship of arterial and exhaled CO2 during elevated artificial pneumoperitoneum pressure for introduction of the first trocar. [PDF]
, 2011 The present study evaluated the correlation between arterial CO2 and exhaled CO2 during brief high-pressure pneumoperitoneum. Patients were randomly distributed into two groups: P12 group (n=30) received a maximum intraperitoneal pressure of 12mmHg ...

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the 1980s, researchers discovered the remarkable ability of electrospray plumes to effectively ionize gas‐phase molecules via secondary ionization. Around 20 years later—coinciding with the ambient mass spectrometry revolution—secondary electrospray ionization (SESI) and extractive electrospray ionization (EESI) coupled to mass spectrometry

Predictors of outcome of noninvasive ventilation in severe COPD exacerbation
BMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2019 Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) reduces the rate of endotracheal intubation (ETI) and overall mortality in severe acute exacerbation of COPD (AECOPD) with acute respiratory failure and is increasingly applied in respiratory intermediate care units. However,

Validation of a new spectrometer for noninvasive measurement of cardiac output [PDF]
, 2004 Acetylene is a blood-soluble gas and for many years its uptake rate during rebreathing tests has been used to calculate the flow rate of blood through the lungs (normally equal to cardiac output) as well as the volume of lung tissue.

A Rare Case of ARDS Caused by Bupropion Inhalation and Treated with Noninvasive Ventilation
Case Reports in Critical Care, 2020 Acute respiratory distress syndrome, characterized by the Berlin criteria, is associated with a high mortality rate. Its treatment includes addressing the underlying etiology, general supportive measures, and achievement of effective oxygenation. New key
