Intracranial response to positive end-expiratory pressure is influenced by lung recruitability and gas distribution during mechanical ventilation in acute brain injury patients: a proof-of-concept physiological study [PDF]

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental
Background The effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on intracranial pressure (ICP) dynamics in patients with acute brain injury (ABI) remains controversial. PEEP can benefit oxygenation by promoting alveolar recruitment, but its influence on

Recruitability and effect of PEEP in SARS-Cov-2-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care, 2020
Background A large proportion of patients with a SARS-Cov-2-associated respiratory failure develop an acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

Monitoring lung recruitability during recruitment maneuvers in children with respiratory failure on ECMO using electrical impedance tomography: case report [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics
IntroductionCurrently, there are no clear guidelines regarding the use of recruitment maneuvers in pediatric patients with severe respiratory failure who are on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), nor is there consensus on how they should be ...

Positive end-expiratory pressure titration in acute respiratory distress syndrome–a practical bedside algorithm [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
Positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) selection and titration is a longstanding debate in management of mechanically ventilated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

Impact of PEEP on V/Q mismatch according to patient position and recruitability: a clinical prospective study [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Intensive Care
Background: High positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) may improve ventilation-perfusion (V/Q) mismatch in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients with high recruitability in supine position.

Physiology-guided personalized mechanical ventilation to prevent ventilator-induced lung injury [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
Mechanical ventilation is essential for managing acute respiratory failure, yet it carries a significant risk of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Lung-protective ventilation, most notably through the use of low tidal volumes, has improved outcomes ...

Regional Lung Recruitability During Pneumoperitoneum Depends on Chest Wall Elastance – A Mechanical and Computed Tomography Analysis in Rats

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Background: Laparoscopic surgery with pneumoperitoneum increases respiratory system elastance due to the augmented intra-abdominal pressure. We aim to evaluate to which extent positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) is able to counteract abdominal ...

Characterizing heterogeneity and subphenotyping acute respiratory distress syndrome with computed tomography [PDF]

open access: yesIntensive Care Medicine Experimental
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a heterogeneous clinical syndrome rather than a single disease. Patients who meet the same diagnostic criteria may differ in lung morphology, mechanical properties, biological injury, and clinical course ...

Potential for Lung Recruitment Maneuvers Estimated by the Cytokines in Bronchoalveolar Lavage Fluid in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesEmergency Medicine International
Conclusion: Lower levels of cytokines in BALF were observed in the RM-E group. It is possible that the cytokines in BALF, especially IL-6, could be used to determine the need for RM on the basis of lung recruitability.
