Early ICU Mortality Prediction and Survival Analysis for Respiratory Failure [PDF]
Respiratory failure is the one of major causes of death in critical care unit. During the outbreak of COVID-19, critical care units experienced an extreme shortage of mechanical ventilation because of respiratory failure related syndromes. To help this, the early mortality risk prediction in patients who suffer respiratory failure can provide timely ...

Myasthenia Gravis Presenting as Isolated Respiratory Failure: A Case Report [PDF]
Myasthenia gravis (MG) is often complicated by respiratory failure, known as a myasthenic crisis. However, most of the patients who develop respiratory symptoms do so during the late course of disease and have other neurological signs and symptoms ...

Combining chest X-rays and electronic health record (EHR) data using machine learning to diagnose acute respiratory failure [PDF]
Objective: When patients develop acute respiratory failure, accurately identifying the underlying etiology is essential for determining the best treatment. However, differentiating between common medical diagnoses can be challenging in clinical practice.

Ventilatory support in critically ill hematology patients with respiratory failure [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Hematology patients admitted to the ICU frequently experience respiratory failure and require mechanical ventilation. Noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV) may decrease the risk of intubation, but NIMV failure poses its own risks ...

Predicting High-Flow Nasal Cannula Failure in an ICU Using a Recurrent Neural Network with Transfer Learning and Input Data Perseveration: A Retrospective Analysis [PDF]
High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) provides non-invasive respiratory support for critically ill children who may tolerate it more readily than other Non-Invasive (NIV) techniques. Timely prediction of HFNC failure can provide an indication for increasing respiratory support.

Association between muscle quality index and pulmonary function in post-COVID-19 subjects
Background The SARS-CoV2 pandemic impacted many critically ill patients, causing sequelae, affecting lung function, and involving the musculoskeletal system. We evaluated the association between lung function and muscle quality index in severely ill post-
