Lung volume recruitment maneuvers and respiratory system mechanics in mechanically ventilated mice

open access: yes, 2009
The study aim was to establish how recruitment maneuvers (RMs) influence lung mechanics and to determine whether RMs produce lung injury. Healthy BALB/c mice were allocated to receive positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) at 2 or 6 cmH2O and volume ...

Pulmonary Atelectasis in General Anaesthesia [Elektronisk resurs] : Clinical Studies on the Counteracting Effects of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure

open access: yes, 2019
Partial lung collapse, i.e., pulmonary atelectasis, is common during general anaesthesia. The main causal mechanism is reduced lung volume with airway closure and subsequent gas absorption from preoxygenated alveoli.
