ABSTRACT Background Esophagectomy remains a highly invasive procedure associated with substantial postoperative morbidity. Pulmonary complications, anastomotic leakage, and in‐hospital mortality are of particular concern. Perioperative corticosteroids are often administered to attenuate excessive inflammatory responses; however, the clinical impact in ...

BACKGROUND:High-quality chest compressions are imperative for Cardio-Pulmonary-Resuscitation (CPR). International CPR guidelines advocate, that chest compressions should not be interrupted for ventilation once a patient's trachea is intubated or a ...

Pulmonary ventilation and perfusion and ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) matching determine gas exchange in every lung unit in the healthy state and in the pathologically altered lung. Mismatch of V and Q lead to hypoxaemia and hypercapnia and monitoring of V/

Feeding enterostomy during MIE was evaluated in 19 054 patients from the Japanese NCD using propensity weighting. Enterostomy was associated with higher reoperation and respiratory complications, but lower delayed gastric emptying and deep vein thrombosis, with no significant difference in overall bowel obstruction.

Exercise response and the effect of supplemental oxygen during interval training on O2 uptake kinetics, blood lactate levels, and endurance performance in patients with mild, moderate and severe cystic fibrosis [PDF]
Background: Exercise performance is reduced in individuals with moderate to severe cystic fibrosis (CF). A ventilatory mechanical limitation, arterial hypoxemia, cardiovascular abnormalities, alteration in O2 uptake kinetics and reduced muscle ...

Equipment for noninvasive mechanical ventilation.
Noninvasive ventilation consists of the application of a ventilator to the patient’s airways without recourse to orotracheal intubation or tracheostomy and therefore requires a range of devices that guarantee mechanical ventilatory support to the ...
