PEEP-FiO2 table versus EIT to titrate PEEP in mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19-related ARDS [PDF]

Critical Care, 2022
Rationale It is unknown how to titrate positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in patients with COVID-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Guidelines recommend the one-size-fits-all PEEP-FiO2 table.

Electrical impedance tomography: A compass for the safe route to optimal PEEP

Respiratory Medicine, 2021
Setting the proper level of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is a cornerstone of lung protective ventilation. PEEP keeps the alveoli open at the end of expiration, thus reducing atelectrauma and shunt.

Detection of optimal PEEP for equal distribution of tidal volume by volumetric capnography and electrical impedance tomography during decreasing levels of PEEP in post cardiac-surgery patients

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 2016
Background Homogeneous ventilation is important for prevention of ventilator-induced lung injury. Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) has been used to identify optimal PEEP by detection of homogenous ventilation in non-dependent and dependent lung ...

Higher PEEP improves outcomes in ARDS patients with clinically objective positive oxygenation response to PEEP: a systematic review and meta-analysis

BMC Anesthesiology, 2018
Background Mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) remains high. These patients require mechanical ventilation strategies that include high positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP).

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

Identifying behaviours for survival and wellness among people who use methamphetamine with opioids in British Columbia: a qualitative study

Harm Reduction Journal, 2022
Background British Columbia (BC) has been in a state of public health emergency since 2016, due to the unprecedented numbers of fatal and non-fatal drug toxicity (i.e. overdose) events.

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 ...

Electric impedance tomography-guided PEEP titration reduces mechanical power in ARDS: a randomized crossover pilot trial

Critical Care, 2023
Background In patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome undergoing mechanical ventilation, positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) can lead to recruitment or overdistension.
