Patterns of Patient-Ventilator Asynchrony as Predictors of Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation [PDF]

Anaesthesia and Intensive Care, 2012
Patient-ventilator asynchrony has been associated with adverse outcomes. The largest body of investigation has focused on ineffective ventilator triggering. Nevertheless, the effect of other patterns of asynchrony on patient outcomes is unknown. The purpose of this study was to assess the performance of specific patterns of asynchrony in their ability

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 ...

Inhaled PGE1 in neonates with hypoxemic respiratory failure: two pilot feasibility randomized clinical trials. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundInhaled nitric oxide (INO), a selective pulmonary vasodilator, has revolutionized the treatment of neonatal hypoxemic respiratory failure (NHRF). However, there is lack of sustained improvement in 30 to 46% of infants.

Prolonged mechanical ventilation as a consequence of acute illness [PDF]

Archives of Disease in Childhood, 1998
To determine why acutely ill children become dependent upon mechanical ventilation and what happens to them.A retrospective medical record study of all patients aged between 1 month and 16 years from 1983 to 1996 who required ventilation for more than 28 days.Forty children were ventilated for between 36 and 180 days before discharge or death.

Association between procalcitonin levels and duration of mechanical ventilation in COVID-19 patients

PLoS ONE, 2020
Background Patients diagnosed with COVID-19 frequently require mechanical ventilation. Knowledge of laboratory tests associated with the prolonged need for mechanical ventilation may guide resource allocation.

Analysis of Fluid Balance as Predictor of Length of Assisted Mechanical Ventilation in Children Admitted to Pediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU)

International Journal of Pediatrics, 2022
Background. Ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI) is a devastating complication of assisted mechanical ventilation (AMV) and is one of the root causes of prolonged AMV. Many strategies were made to decrease the effect of the same.

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

Antibiofilm activity of a chionodracine‐derived peptide by NMR‐based metabolomics of cell‐free supernatant of Acinetobacter baumannii clinical strains

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KHS‐Cnd peptide is able to impair biofilm formation and disaggregate mature biofilms in Acinetobacter baumannii clinical isolates. Differences in extracellular metabolites reflect changes in biofilm metabolism due to KHS‐Cnd treatment. Among the differentially represented extracellular metabolites upon KHS‐Cnd treatment, the significantly altered ...

Patient Transitions Relevant to Individuals Requiring Ongoing Ventilatory Assistance: A Delphi Study

Canadian Respiratory Journal, 2014
BACKGROUND: Various terms, including ‘prolonged mechanical ventilation’ (PMV) and ‘long-term mechanical ventilation’ (LTMV), are used interchangeably to distinguish patient cohorts requiring ventilation, making comparisons and timing of clinical decision
