Assessment of Ventilation and Perfusion in Patients with COVID-19 Discloses Unique Information of Pulmonary Function to a Clinician [Elektronisk resurs] : Case Reports of V/P SPECT

open access: yesClinical Medicine Insights: Circulatory, Respiratory and Pulmonary Medicine, 2021
V/P SPECT from 4 consecutive patients with COVID-19 suggests that ventilation and perfusion images may be applied to diagnose or exclude pulmonary embolism, verify nonsegmental diversion of perfusion from the ventilated areas (dead space ventilation ...

Inhaled nitric oxide in preterm infants: a systematic review and individual patient data meta-analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Preterm infants requiring assisted ventilation are at significant risk of both pulmonary and cerebral injury. Inhaled Nitric Oxide, an effective therapy for pulmonary hypertension and hypoxic respiratory failure in the full term infant, has ...

High tidal volume ventilation is not deleterious in infant rats exposed to severe hemorrhage

open access: yes, 2010
BACKGROUND: Both high tidal volume (VT) ventilation and hemorrhage induce acute lung injury in adult rodents. It is not known whether injurious ventilation augments lung injury in infant rats exposed to severe hemorrhage.

CHOOSING A PULMONARY VENTILATOR

open access: yesBritish Journal of Anaesthesia, 1963
The author presents an approach to the selection of an automatic pulmonary ventilator. The indications for automatic ventilators are set out and a guide to choice is then suggested on physiological and practical considerations. Many features of machines are discussed briefly and a rather high standard is put forward.

The effects on arterial haemoglobin oxygen saturation and on shunt of increasing cardiac output with dopamine or dobutamine during one-lung ventilation

open access: yes, 2004
Publisher's copy made available with the permission of the publisher © Australian Society of AnaesthetistsTheoretically, if the cardiac output were increased in the presence of a given intrapulmonary shunt, the arterial saturation should improve as the ...

Liquid ventilation in an infant with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Partial liquid ventilation (PLV) has been applied in various pulmonary diseases. We describe the use of partial liquid ventilation as a lavage method following normal saline (NS) lavage in an infant with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) and severe ...
