The role of the tidal volume challenge test in volume responsiveness assessment: a narrative review [PDF]
The 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 ...

Influence of different noninvasive oxygenation support devices on tidal volume [PDF]
Background Multiple devices are available for noninvasive oxygenation support, including non-rebreather oxygen mask (O2-mask), high-flow oxygen through nasal cannula (HFNC), continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP), mask noninvasive ventilation (Mask ...

Impact of individualized tidal volume strategies on intraoperative lung protection and inflammatory markers in laparoscopic cholecystectomy: a randomized controlled trial [PDF]
ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of individualized tidal volume settings, as compared to conventional settings on lung injury in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy under mechanical ventilation.MethodsA total of 40 ...

The effect of unilateral chest drainage for transpulmonary pressure during mechanical ventilation
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 ...

Very low tidal volume ventilation with associated hypercapnia--effects on lung injury in a model for acute respiratory distress syndrome. [PDF]
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.

Increasing the efficiency of mechanical ventilators during pandemics through additive manufacturing
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.

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