BACKGROUND: Almost all patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) eventually develop respiratory failure. Once 24 h ventilation is required, either due to incomplete effectiveness of nocturnal noninvasive ventilation (NIV) or bulbar weakness, it is ...

The Use of Noninvasive Mechanical Ventilation in Myasthenic Crisis
Myasthenia gravis is an autoimmune disease of the nicotinic acetylcholin receptors at the postsynaptic membrane of the neuromuscular junction. Myasthenic crisis, defined as respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation is a common life-threatening

Timing of Intubation in COVID-19: When It Is Too Early and When It Is Too Late
The timing of initiating mechanical ventilation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome due to COVID-19 remains controversial. At the outset of the pandemic, “very early” intubation was recommended in patients requiring oxygen flows above 6 ...

The study presents a low‐cost, noninvasive system for real‐time neonatal respiratory monitoring. A flexible, screen‐printed sensor patch captures chest movements with high sensitivity and minimal drift. Combined with machine learning, the system accurately detects breathing patterns and offers a practical solution for neonatal care in low‐resource ...

Noninvasive ventilation in trauma
Trauma patients are a diverse population with heterogeneous needs for ventilatory support. This requirement depends mainly on the severity of their ventilatory dysfunction, degree of deterioration in gaseous exchange, any associated injuries, and the individual feasibility of potentially using a noninvasive ventilation approach. Noninvasive ventilation

Unusual applications of noninvasive ventilation [PDF]
The use of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) in acute hypercapnic respiratory failure, cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), community-acquired pneumonia and weaning/post-extubation failure is considered common in clinical practice.

ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena

Surface Fluorescence Studies of Tissue Mitochondrial Redox State in Isolated Perfused Rat Lungs [PDF]
We designed a fiber-optic-based optoelectronic fluorometer to measure emitted fluorescence from the auto-fluorescent electron carriers NADH and FAD of the mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC).

This study investigated changes in pulmonary artery hemodynamics using a Flowire catheter and evaluated the accuracy of Doppler echocardiography in dogs with acute pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). Ten healthy beagles were anesthetized, and acute pulmonary hypertension (PH) was induced by injecting 300‐μm dextran microspheres.
