PEEP and CPAP [PDF]

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 1986
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) maintains airway pressure above atmospheric at the end of expiration, and may be used with mechanical ventilation or spontaneous breathing. CPAP, or continuous positive airway pressure, refers to spontaneous ventilation with a positive airway pressure being maintained throughout the whole respiratory cycle. PEEP/

Association between driving pressure and recruitment-to-inflation ratio in personalized PEEP management at the bedside [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) titration is crucial for preserving lung mechanics and physiology in mechanically ventilated patients. End-expiratory lung volume (EELV) and compliance can be used for this purpose.

Gastrointestinal complications in critical care patients and effects of mechanical ventilation on the gastrointestinal tract

Journal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2021
Patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) especially those who require mechanical ventilation are at increased risk for developing gastrointestinal (GI) complications such as bleeding, infection, and motility dysfunction.

Mechanical ventilator flow and pressure sensors: Does location matter?

Journal of Mechanical Ventilation, 2023
Introduction Accurate measurements of ventilatory outputs are crucial during mechanical ventilation support. These measurements are achieved through sensors that monitor parameters such as flow/volumes and pressures. External and internal flow sensors

Effects of a preemptive alveolar recruitment strategy on arterial oxygenation during one-lung ventilation with different tidal volumes in patients with normal pulmonary function test [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2014
BackgroundHypoxemia during one-lung ventilation (OLV) remains a major concern. The present study compared the effect of alveolar recruitment strategy (ARS) on arterial oxygenation during OLV at varying tidal volumes (Vt) with or without positive end ...

Thoracic, peripheral, and cerebral volume, circulatory and pressure responses to PEEP during simulated hemorrhage in a pig model: a case study

Journal of Electrical Bioimpedance, 2021
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is a respiratory/ventilation procedure that is used to maintain or improve breathing in clinical and experimental cases that exhibit impaired lung function.

Pneumonia due to aspiration of povidine iodine after induction of general anesthesia -A case report- [PDF]

Korean Journal of Anesthesiology, 2011
Aspiration pneumonia is usually caused by aspiration of gastric contents during anesthesia. It causes severe pulmonary complications. Povidone iodine was used widely as an oral antiseptic.

Ultrasonography in the Assessment of Lung Recruitment in Patients with Severe Pneumonia

Неотложная медицинская помощь, 2020
BACKGROUND. Ultrasound study significantly expanded the possibilities of bedside diagnosis in patients with respiratory failure. Using ultrasound, it is possible to determine the volume of lung damage in the form of collapsed alveoli and infiltration ...
