The clinical trade-off of intraluminal versus extraluminal bronchial blockers in children: a retrospective analysis of respiratory mechanics and airway trauma during lung isolation preparation [PDF]
IntroductionOptimal bronchial blocker (BB) placement for pediatric lung isolation presents a clinical dilemma. Intraluminal placement restricts the narrow endotracheal tube (ETT) lumen, whereas extraluminal placement risks upper airway trauma.MethodsThis

Lung Mechanics Over the Century: From Bench to Bedside and Back to Bench
Lung physiology research advanced significantly over the last 100 years. Respiratory mechanics applied to animal models of lung disease extended the knowledge of the workings of respiratory system. In human research, a better understanding of respiratory
