Prediction of lung mechanics throughout recruitment maneuvers in pressure-controlled ventilation

Comput. Methods Programs Biomed., 2020
Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a core therapy in the intensive care unit (ICU). Some patients rely on MV to support breathing. However, it is a difficult therapy to optimise, where inter- and intra- patient variability leads to significantly increased ...

Evaluation of alveolar recruitment maneuver on respiratory resistance during general anesthesia: a prospective observational study

BMC Anesthesiology, 2020
Background Alveolar recruitment maneuvers enable easily reopening nonaerated lung regions via a transient elevation in transpulmonary pressure. To evaluate the effect of these maneuvers on respiratory resistance, we used an oscillatory technique during ...

Dependency of respiratory system mechanics on positive end‐expiratory pressure and recruitment maneuvers in lung healthy pediatric patients—A randomized crossover study

Paediatric anaesthesia, 2020
The lungs of pediatric patients are subjected to tidal derecruitment during mechanical ventilation and in contrast to adult patients this unfavorable condition cannot be resolved with small c increases.

Determinants of inspiratory muscle strength in healthy humans [PDF]

, 2014
We investigated 1) the relationship between the baseline and inspiratory muscle training (IMT) induced increase in maximal inspiratory pressure (PI,max) and 2) the relative contributions of the inspiratory chest wall muscles and the diaphragm (Poes/Pdi ...

Low impact weight-bearing exercise in an upright posture achieves greater lumbopelvic stability than overground walking [PDF]

, 2013
The aim of this study was to determine the kinematic differences between movements on a new exercise device (EX) that promotes a stable trunk over a moving, unstable base of support, and overground walking (OW).

Recrutamento alveolar em pacientes no pós-operatório imediato de cirurgia cardíaca Alveolar recruitment in patients in the immediate postoperative period of cardiac surgery

Brazilian Journal of Cardiovascular Surgery, 2011
Complicações pulmonares no pós-operatório de cirurgia cardíaca são frequentes, destacando-se a atelectasia e a hipoxemia. As manobras de recrutamento alveolar contribuem significativamente para a prevenção e o tratamento destas complicações. Desta forma,

Bench-to-bedside review: Recruitment and recruiting maneuvers.

Critical care (London, England), 2005
In patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), the lung comprises areas of aeration and areas of alveolar collapse, the latter producing intrapulmonary shunt and hypoxemia. The currently suggested strategy of ventilation with low lung volumes can aggravate lung collapse and potentially produce lung injury through shear stress at the ...
