Subxyphoid pleural drain confers lesser impairment in respiratory muscle strength, oxygenation and lower chest pain after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting: a randomized controlled trial Dreno pleural subxifoide confere menor comprometimento da força muscular respiratória, oxigenação e menor dor torácica após cirurgia de revascularização do miocárdio sem circulação extracorpórea: estudo controlado randomizado

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2012
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate respiratory muscle strength, oxygenation and chest pain in patients undergoing off-pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) using internal thoracic artery grafts comparing pleural drain insertion site at the subxyphoid region versus the

Pulmonary gas exchange during hemodialysis

open access: yesKidney International, 1986
Pulmonary gas exchange was continuously measured in 13 mechanically ventilated patients during 24 hemodialyses for acute renal failure. Minute-ventilation was maintained constant by controlled ventilation and gas exchange was continuously measured by a mass-spectrometer system. Three groups were compared: a cuprophan membrane with an acetate dialysate;

Perspectives on the Structure and Function of the Avian Respiratory System: Functional Efficiency Built on Structural Complexity

open access: yesFrontiers in Animal Science, 2022
Among the air-breathing vertebrates, regarding respiratory efficiency, the avian respiratory system rests at the evolutionary zenith. Structurally, it is separated into a lung that serves as a gas exchanger and air sacs that mechanically ventilate the ...

Simulation and Analysis of an Integrated Cardiopulmonary Gas Exchange Model Under Different Pathological Conditions

open access: yesIEEE Access
The development of individualised diagnosis and treatment plans depends on accurate modelling of cardiopulmonary dynamics. A comprehensive cardiopulmonary model that incorporates gas exchange, lung mechanics and cardiovascular interactions has been ...

Understanding alveolarization to induce lung regeneration

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2018
Background Gas exchange represents the key physiological function of the lung, and is dependent upon proper formation of the delicate alveolar structure. Malformation or destruction of the alveolar gas-exchange regions are key histopathological hallmarks

Management of two circulations in a COVID‐19 patient with secondary superinfection

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
Optimal oxygenation in the intensive care unit requires adequate pulmonary gas exchange, oxygen‐carrying capacity in the form of hemoglobin, sufficient delivery of oxygenated hemoglobin to the tissue, and an appropriate tissue oxygen demand. In this Case

The Usefulness of Submaximal Exercise Gas Exchange in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: A Case Series

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Circulatory, Respiratory and Pulmonary Medicine, 2010
Introduction Submaximal exercise gas exchange may be a useful tool to track responses to therapy in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) patients. Methods Three patients diagnosed with idiopathic PAH, on differing therapies, were included.
