Natural ventilation for the prevention of airborne contagion. [PDF]

, 2007
BACKGROUND: Institutional transmission of airborne infections such as tuberculosis (TB) is an important public health problem, especially in resource-limited settings where protective measures such as negative-pressure isolation rooms are difficult to ...

Perfusion of the interventricular septum during ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) [PDF]

, 1991
Objective: To determine whether regional hypoperfusion of the interventricular septum occurs during ventilation with positive end-expiratory pressure. Design: Animal study. Animals: Anesthetized, closed chest dogs (n = 8).

Cardiopulmonary Interactions during Positive Pressure Ventilation

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 1996
Positive pressure ventilation (PPV) may lead to significant hemodynamic alterations. The cardiocirculatory effects of PPV occur through alterations in the loading conditions of the right and left ventricle and are mediated by changes in intrathoracic ...

Superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation combined with continuous positive airway pressure/assisted spontaneous breathing improves oxygenation in patients with H1N1-associated ARDS [PDF]

, 2012
Background: Numerous cases of swine-origin 2009 H1N1 influenza A virus (H1N1)-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) bridged by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy have been reported; however, complication rates are high. We

Positive pressure–assisted pleural aspiration: A case report of a novel procedure and a review of literature

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2022
Drainage of a pleural effusion is done either by inserting an intercostal tube or by aspirating pleural fluid using a syringe. The latter is a time-consuming and labour-intensive procedure.

The effects of different ventilator modes on cerebral tissue oxygen saturation in patients with bidirectional superior cavopulmonary connection

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2014
Aims and Objectives: We used near-infrared spectroscopy to document changes in cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (SctO 2 ) in response to ventilation mode alterations after bidirectional Glenn (BDG; superior cavopulmonary connection) procedure.

From state-of-the-art ventilation to closed loop ventilation

, 2022
Recent emphasis on energy load delivered during each ventilatory breath has opened a new insight to reduce harmful ventilatory induced lung injury, but no robust clinical evidence of patient benefit produced yet. Closed loop ventilation is a strategy to

Combined Ventilation of Two Subjects with a Single Mechanical Ventilator Using a New Medical Device: An In Vitro Study

Anesthesiology Research and Practice, 2021
Introduction. The SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has created a sudden lack of ventilators. DuplicARⓇ is a novel device that allows simultaneous and independent ventilation of two subjects with a single ventilator.

Performance of ventilators for noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation in children [PDF]

European Respiratory Journal, 2008
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the performance characteristics of all the ventilators proposed for home noninvasive positive-pressure ventilation in children in France.The ventilators (one volume-targeted, 12 pressure-targeted and four dual) were evaluated on a bench which simulated six different paediatric ventilatory patterns.
