Respiratory fluid mechanics [PDF]
This article covers several aspects of respiratory fluid mechanics that have been actively investigated by our group over the years. For the most part, the topics involve two-phase flows in the respiratory system with applications to normal and diseased lungs, as well as therapeutic interventions.

Objectives A unique dataset of airway flow/pressure from healthy subjects on Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) ventilation was collected. This data can be used to develop or validate models of pulmonary mechanics, and/or to develop methods to ...

THE RESPIRATORY MECHANISM IN PNEUMONIA [PDF]
1. The reaction of the respiratory mechanism to carbon dioxide is greatly diminished in pneumonia. 2. The graver the disease, the less the reaction.

How to measure respiratory mechanics during controlled mechanical ventilation
Bedside measurement of respiratory mechanics allows to closely monitor the lung function in critically ill patients. The two fundamental parameters describing the respiratory system mechanics are resistance and compliance.

Respiratory decompensation with proning – when prone positioning can worsen respiratory mechanics
Prone positioning recently gain- ed more popularity from its use in COVID-19 management. It is gene-rally considered to improve respiratory mechanics via increased lung compliance.

Postperfusion lung syndrome: Respiratory mechanics, respiratory indices and biomarkers
Postperfusion lung syndrome is rare but lethal. Secondary inflammatory response was the popularly accepted theory for the underlying etiology. Respiratory index (RI) and arterial oxygen tension/fractional inspired oxygen can be reliable indices for the ...

In Vitro Estimation of Relative Compliance during High-Frequency Oscillatory Ventilation
High-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), which uses a small tidal volume and a high respiratory rate, is considered a type of protective lung ventilation that can be beneficial for certain patients.

Simulation of Respiratory Mechanics
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.

Background Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and pressure support ventilation (PSV) can improve respiratory mechanics and gas exchange, but different airway pressures have not been compared in foals.
