Randomized crossover comparison of proportional assist ventilation and patient-triggered ventilation in extremely low birth weight infants with evolving chronic lung disease [PDF]

, 2007
Background: Refinement of ventilatory techniques remains a challenge given the persistence of chronic lung disease of preterm infants. Objective: To test the hypothesis that proportional assist ventilation ( PAV) will allow to lower the ventilator ...

Review of hypoxaemia in the anaesthetized horse: predisposing factors, consequences and management [PDF]

, 2017
Objectives: To discuss how hypoxaemia might be harmful and why the horse is particularly predisposed to developing it. To review the strategies that are used to manage hypoxaemia in anaesthetised horses, to describe how successful these strategies are

Prolonged propofol infusion for mechanically ventilated children [PDF]

Anaesthesia, 2016
Summary We retrospectively analysed 30‐day mortality and duration of intubation for 8016 children ventilated for three or more days, sedated with midazolam (n = 7716) or propofol (n = 300). We matched the propensity scores of 263 pairs of children.

Perspectives on prolonged nocturnal invasive mechanical ventilation

Journal of Mechanical Ventilation
The utilization of invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) has become common practice for a large and expanding number of patients with chronic respiratory failure resultant from several medical diseases and disorders. Although protocols and guidelines for

Sedation and weaning from mechanical ventilation: time for ‘best practice’ to catch up with new realities? [PDF]

, 2014
Delivery of sedation in anticipation of weaning of adult patients from prolonged mechanical ventilation is an arena of critical care medicine where opinion-based practice is currently hard to avoid because robust evidence is lacking.

Expectations and outcomes of prolonged mechanical ventilation* [PDF]

Critical Care Medicine, 2009
Prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) provision is increasing markedly despite poor patient outcomes. Misunderstanding prognosis in the PMV decision making process could provide an explanation to this phenomenon. Therefore, we aimed to compare PMV decision makers' expectations for long-term patient outcomes with prospectively observed outcomes.

Prolonged mechanical ventilation and chronic critical illness [PDF]

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2016
Intensive care medicine has grown effectively in recent decades, parallel to multiple scientific and technological advances of our society. However, patients who survive the initial insult may have significant functional dependency, with slow recovery and high mortality rates (1-3).

Hygrothermal performance of building envelopes in the tropics under operative conditions : condensation and mould growth risk appraisal [PDF]

, 2016
Poor indoor hygrothermal performance increases the risk of indoor moisture problems and deterioration due to mould growth, corrosion and damage to archival materials. Hence, proper control of indoor thermohygric intensity abates indoor moisture and its

Mechanical ventilation induces brainstem inflammation in preterm fetal sheep

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
BackgroundPreterm infants have immature respiratory drive and often require prolonged periods of mechanical ventilation. Prolonged mechanical ventilation induces systemic inflammation resulting in ventilation-induced brain injury, however its effect on ...
