Very low tidal volume ventilation with associated hypercapnia--effects on lung injury in a model for acute respiratory distress syndrome. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 BACKGROUND: Ventilation using low tidal volumes with permission of hypercapnia is recommended to protect the lung in acute respiratory distress syndrome. However, the most lung protective tidal volume in association with hypercapnia is unknown.

The role of the tidal volume challenge test in volume responsiveness assessment: a narrative review [PDF]
Journal of Anesthesia, Analgesia and Critical CareThe accurate prediction of volume responsiveness is fundamental to goal-directed fluid administration. Targeted fluid administration during surgery is critical to avoid hypervolemia or hypovolemia and their associated postoperative complications ...

Comparison of prehospital tidal volume delivery performance between automated transport ventilators and bag-valve devices in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients: does the pressure limit matter? [PDF]
Frontiers in MedicineBackgroundAutomatic transport ventilators (ATVs) are a potential option for ventilating patients experiencing out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA); however, their tidal volume delivery performance at different pressure limits compared with that of ...

The effect of unilateral chest drainage for transpulmonary pressure during mechanical ventilation
JA Clinical Reports, 2023 Introduction Chest tube drainage is usually performed through an underwater seal at a level of 10–20 cmH2O. Based on the definition of transpulmonary pressure, continuous chest drainage creates continuous negative pressure, decreasing pleural surface ...

International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2021 Background: Percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is the treatment of choice for large or complex renal stones. The upper pole (supra-costal access) is associated with pulmonary and cardiac complications post-operatively, owing to its proximity to the ...

Prehospital tidal volume influences hospital tidal volume: A cohort study [PDF]
Journal of Critical Care, 2015 The purposes of the study are to describe current practice of ventilation in a modern air medical system and to measure the association of ventilation strategy with subsequent ventilator care and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Retrospective observational cohort study of intubated adult patients (n = 235) transported by a university ...

Increasing the efficiency of mechanical ventilators during pandemics through additive manufacturing
Biomolecules & Biomedicine, 2021 The COVID-19 pandemic tested medical facilities’ readiness in terms of the number of available mechanical ventilators. Most countries raced to stock up on ventilators, which created a surge in demand and short in supply.
