Intracranial pressure responsiveness to positive end-expiratory pressure in different respiratory mechanics: a preliminary experimental study in pigs

open access: yesBMC Neurology, 2018
Background Respiratory mechanics affects the effect of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on intracranial pressure (ICP). Respiratory mechanics of the lung and the chest wall was not differentiated in previous studies.

Simulation of Respiratory Mechanics

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 1966
The dynamic relationship between respiratory muscle effort and the consequent changes in lung volume is investigated. A mathematical simulation based on the structures that form the connection between these two variables makes it possible to lump the contribution from all respiratory muscles into a single time-varying driving force.

Alterations in Respiratory Mechanics in Mechanically Ventilated Patients Following Bronchoalveolar Lavage

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2009
Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) can be used for a variety of diagnostic purposes in mechanically ventilated patients. BAL can cause changes in respiratory mechanics. However, the risk factors associated with these changes remain unknown.

Respiration rate and volume measurements using wearable strain sensors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Current methods for continuous respiration monitoring such as respiratory inductive or optoelectronic plethysmography are limited to clinical or research settings; most wearable systems reported only measures respiration rate.

Assessment of the mechanics of a tissue-engineered rat trachea in an image-processing environment

open access: yesClinics, 2014
OBJECTIVES:Despite the recent success regarding the transplantation of tissue-engineered airways, the mechanical properties of these grafts are not well understood. Mechanical assessment of a tissue-engineered airway graft before implantation may be used

Expert consensus for respiratory physiotherapy management of mechanically ventilated adults with community-acquired pneumonia: A Delphi study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Rationale and aims: Patients with community‐acquired pneumonia (CAP) are frequently admitted to an intensive care unit. Physiotherapy may be provided to optimize respiratory function; however, there is significant variability in clinical practice and ...

Respiratory Mechanics in Mechanically Ventilated Patients [PDF]

open access: yesRespiratory Care, 2014
Respiratory mechanics refers to the expression of lung function through measures of pressure and flow. From these measurements, a variety of derived indices can be determined, such as volume, compliance, resistance, and work of breathing. Plateau pressure is a measure of end-inspiratory distending pressure.
