An observational study of Donor Ex Vivo Lung Perfusion in UK lung transplantation: DEVELOP-UK [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Many patients awaiting lung transplantation die before a donor organ becomes available. Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) allows initially unusable donor lungs to be assessed and reconditioned for clinical use.

Relationship of ventilatory inefficiency and low cardiorespiratory fitness in the elderly: a retrospective observational study

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Geriatria e Gerontologia, 2019
Objectives : To check if ventilatory inefficiency is related to low cardiorespiratory fitness in the elderly and to identify the variable(s) of the cardiopulmonary exercise test (CPET) best suited to determining this relationship.

Chest CT scoring for evaluation of lung sequelae in congenital diaphragmatic hernia survivors

open access: yes, 2020
Objectives Data on long-term structural lung abnormalities in survivors of congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) is scarce. The purpose of this study was to develop a chest computed tomography (CT) score to assess the structural lung sequelae in CDH ...

The Role of rescue therapies in the treatment of severe ARDS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
ARDS is characterized by a non-cardiogenic pulmonary edema with bilateral chest radiograph opacities and hypoxemia refractory to oxygen therapy. It is a common cause of admission to the ICU due to hypoxemic respiratory failure requiring mechanical ...

Monitoring of lung edema by microwave reflectometry during lung ischemia-reperfusion injury in vivo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
It is still unclear whether lung edema can be monitored by microwave reflectometry and whether the measured changes in lung dry matter content (DMC) are accompanied by changes in PaO(2) and in pro-to anti-inflammatory cytokine expression (IFN-gamma and ...

Assessment of pulmonary edema: principles and practice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Pulmonary edema increasingly is recognized as a perioperative complication affecting outcome. Several risk factors have been identified, including those of cardiogenic origin, such as heart failure or excessive fluid administration, and those related to ...

Modeling-based determination of physiological parameters of systemic VOCs by breath gas analysis: a pilot study

open access: yes, 2015
In this paper we develop a simple two compartment model which extends the Farhi equation to the case when the inhaled concentration of a volatile organic compound (VOC) is not zero.
