Airway Humidification During High-Frequency Percussive Ventilation

Respiratory Care, 2009
We were concerned about the risk of inadequate humidification during high-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV).We studied 5 humidifiers during HFPV with a lung model, at bias gas flows of 10 L/min, 30 L/min, and 50 L/min, and compared the results to those from a comparator ventilator/humidifier setup and to the minimum temperature (30 degrees C) and

High-frequency percussive ventilation for intercontinental aeromedical evacuation

American Journal of Disaster Medicine, 2011
High-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) has been used for the management of patients with smoke inhalation injury for more than 20 years and is considered a standard of care at many burn centers. Because the ventilator is powered by air and oxygen rather than electricity, prehospital use has been limited by largevolume medical gas requirements ...

High-frequency Percussive Ventilation for Severe Inhalation Injury

Anesthesiology, 2014
998 April 2014 A HEALTHY 26-yr-old with singed nares, carbonaceous tracheal secretions, and respiratory distress was intubated following a house fire. Bronchoscopy (fig.) revealed soot throughout the tracheobronchial tree consistent with severe inhalational injury.

High-frequency Percussive Ventilation in Patients with Inhalation Injury

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1989
Inhalation injury complicated by bacterial pneumonia is now one of the primary causes of morbidity and mortality in patients with thermal injury. We have investigated the use of high-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) as a means of ventilatory support for these patients.

Inhaled Prostacyclin in Combination With High-Frequency Percussive Ventilation

Journal of Burn Care & Research, 2010
We present a case of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome pursuant to inhalation of a compressed gas computer keyboard cleaner. Despite the use of multimodal therapy to include empiric antibiotics, intravenous paralytics, intravenous concentrated albumin, high-dose corticosteroids as well as sustained high mean airway pressure mechanical ...

High-frequency percussive ventilation compared with conventional mechanical ventilation

Critical Care Medicine, 1985
In seven patients with severe respiratory distress, conventional mechanical ventilation and PEEP were used initially for respiratory support, which was changed to high-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) at the same level of airway pressure and FIO2.

High Frequency Percussive Ventilation in Pediatric Patients With Inhalation Injury

Journal of Burn Care & Rehabilitation, 1999
The objective of this study was to present data that showed high frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) was superior to traditional mechanical ventilation for the treatment of children with inhalation injuries. Inhalation injuries continue to be the number one cause of death of patients with thermal injuries in the United States.

High-frequency percussive ventilation in a pediatric patient with hydrocarbon aspiration

Pediatric Critical Care Medicine, 2007
To describe ventilator management using a high-frequency percussive ventilator (HFPV), after other modes of mechanical ventilation failed.Case series.Pediatric intensive care unit.Previously healthy 11-month-old male with severe aspiration pneumonitis from mineral oil.The patient was initially placed on a conventional ventilator in a pressure-regulated

Performance characteristics of high-frequency percussive ventilation under hyperbaric conditions

Undersea and Hyperbaric Medicine, 2021
Introduction: Safe administration of critical care hyperbaric medicine requires specialized equipment and advanced training. Equipment must be tested in order to evaluate function in the hyperbaric environment. High-frequency percussive ventilation (HFPV) has been used in intensive care settings effectively, but it has never been tested in a hyperbaric
