Increasing the efficiency of mechanical ventilators during pandemics through additive manufacturing

open access: yesBiomolecules & 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.

It’s In The Bag: Tidal Volumes in Adult and Pediatric Bag Valve Masks [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Lung-protective ventilation increases cerebral metabolism and non-inflammatory brain injury in porcine experimental sepsis

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2021
Background Protective ventilation with lower tidal volumes reduces systemic and organ-specific inflammation. In sepsis-induced encephalopathy or acute brain injury the use of protective ventilation has not been widely investigated (experimentally or ...

Prehospital tidal volume influences hospital tidal volume: A cohort study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Accurate Tidal Volume for Patients under Mechanical Ventilation: A Cross-sectional Descriptive Study

open access: yesArchives of Anesthesia and Critical Care, 2020
Background: In order to prevent lung injury among patients under mechanical ventilation, tidal volume should be determined based on predicted body weight. The aim of the study was to determine the accuracy of tidal volume determination for patients under

Reliability of mechanical ventilation during continuous chest compressions: a crossover study of transport ventilators in a human cadaver model of CPR

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine, 2021
Background Previous studies have stated that hyperventilation often occurs in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) mainly due to excessive ventilation frequencies, especially when a manual valve bag is used.

Study on the number of tidal lanes open at smart highway toll stations

open access: yesJournal of Hebei University of Science and Technology, 2023
In order to solve the problem of uneven distribution of traffic and traffic congestion in the toll plaza of the smart expressway, the measure of opening tidal lanes was proposed under the premise of certain spatial resources, and the optimal number of ...

Do actual tidal volumes differ from prescribed tidal volumes? [PDF]

open access: yesCritical 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).

A novel approach for the assessment of morphological evolution based on observed water levels in tide-dominated estuaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Assessing the impacts of both natural (e.g., tidal forcing from the ocean) and human-induced changes (e.g., dredging for navigation, land reclamation) on estuarine morphology is particularly important for the protection and management of the estuarine ...
