Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2019 Prior to publication of the ARDSNet trial of tidal volumes (VT) (1), traditional mechanical ventilation often employed VT of 10–15 mL/kg of unadjusted body weight. While these volumes had long been noted to exceed those of healthy subjects [who usually breathe at 6–8 mL/kg of predicted body weight (PBW)], they were considered necessary for intubated ...

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 ...

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.

Do actual tidal volumes differ from prescribed tidal volumes? [PDF]
Critical Care, 2012 Studies have shown that the selection of incorrect tidal volume can cause ventilator-induced lung injury and increased mortality [1]. This study was done to determine if the actual tidal volume (aVt) differs from the prescribed tidal volume (pVt) based on predicted body weight (PBW).

From low-tidal-volume ventilation to lowest-tidal-volume ventilation [PDF]
Critical Care, 2008 The therapeutic measures of lung-protective mechanical ventilation used in treatment of acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) have revived the interest in high-frequency ventilation (HFV). The reduction of the tidal volume during the conventional ventilation (CV) in terms of low-tidal-volume ventilation is not ...

It’s In The Bag: Tidal Volumes in Adult and Pediatric Bag Valve Masks [PDF]
, 2020 Introduction: A bag valve mask (BVM) is a life saving device used by all levels of health care professionals during resuscitative care. We focus most of our time optimizing the patient’s position, firmly securing the mask, and frequency of ventilations ...

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.
