Increasing severity with unchanged in-hospital mortality in acute hypercapnic respiratory failure (AHRF) at a respiratory ward-based non-invasive ventilation (NIV) unit

, 2013
Introduction: There has been a 462% increase in acute NIV use in COPD (Chandra D et al. AJRCCM 2011) over 11 years in the United States with similar changes in the UK, where this has led to the movement of NIV provision out of critical care.

Gradient‐Conductivity Architecture Enables Synchronous Enhancement of Sensitivity and Detection Range in Multifunctional All‐Paper Sensors

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A gradient‐engineered all‐paper sensor is fabricated by integrating MXene and in situ grown AgNPs within hierarchical cellulose networks. The device breaks the sensitivity–detection range trade‐off through cascaded conductive pathways, enabling ultrahigh pressure sensitivity, humidity–pressure decoupled dual‐mode sensing, and outstanding EMI shielding,
