Is COVID-19 different from other causes of acute respiratory distress syndrome?
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia can lead to acute hypoxemic respiratory failure. When mechanical ventilation is needed, almost all patients with COVID-19 pneumonia meet the criteria for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

Background In mechanically ventilated patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), electrical impedance tomography (EIT) provides information on alveolar cycling and overdistension as well as assessment of recruitability at the bedside.

Axon initial segment geometry in relation to motoneuron excitability.
The axon initial segment (AIS) responsible for action potential initiation is a dynamic structure that varies and changes together with neuronal excitability.

Recruitability, recruitment and tidal volume interactions
Recent CT-data have shown that lung injury severity assessed by non-aerated tissue, is widely distributed in ARDS population (5 to 70% of total lung weight).

Background Data on the lung respiratory mechanics and gas exchange in the time course of COVID-19-associated respiratory failure is limited. This study aimed to explore respiratory mechanics and gas exchange, the lung recruitability and risk of ...

PEEP titration according to lung recruitability
Bedside PEEP selection methods based on lung mechanics or absolute esophageal pressures provide PEEP levels unrelated to lung recruitability and similar in mild, moderate and severe ARDS, while the oxygenation-based method provided PEEP levels related ...

Background The ventilatory management of COVID–ARDS is controversial, especially with regard to the different subtypes and associated PEEP titration. A higher PEEP may be beneficial only in patients with potential for lung recruitment.

Visual anatomical lung CT scan assessment of lung recruitability
PURPOSE: The computation of lung recruitability in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is advocated to set positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) for preventing lung collapse. The quantitative lung CT scan, obtained by manual image processing, is
