Local ventilation is often a very important part of the ventilation system. It is used to diminish or, preferably, to prevent exposure to contaminants (including heat). This includes protection of persons or products from hazardous or nuisance contaminants. Efficient operation of a local ventilation system must account for exhaust flow field as well as

Nursing Standard, 1999
In this article Nigel Henderson discusses the nursing role in the mechanical ventilation of patients. He describes the different ventilator modes, and the physical and psychological care required by ventilated patients.

Seminars in Perinatology, 2000
Liquid breathing has been proposed as a means of improving gas exchange in infants with acute respiratory failure since the 1970s. In addition, there are potential clinical applications of perfluorochemical (PFC) liquids that span many specialties in medicine.

Anesthesiology Clinics, 2021
Ventilation or breathing is vital for life yet is not well monitored in hospital or at home. Respiratory rate is a neglected vital sign and tidal volumes together with breath sounds are checked infrequently in many patients. Medications with the potential to depress ventilation are frequently administered, and may be accentuated by obesity causing ...

DICP, 1990
Among the many advances made in intensive care therapeutics in recent years, few have rivaled the impact of mechanical ventilators. Their expanded use affects all who practice in the critical care setting. This article reviews the physiologic basis for mechanical ventilation, how ventilators are classified, the various modes, and specific indications.

Current Anaesthesia & Critical Care, 1994
Home ventilation is a growth area. Rapid expansion during the 1990s was stimulated by the development of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) via a mask and the recognition that an increased number of patient groups can benefit. Although patients receiving NIV in the home outnumber those receiving invasive ventilation via tracheostomy, there is substantial ...

Abstract When pressure is applied by the ventilator to drive gas into the lungs, energy is expended to overcome airway resistance, R, to gas flow, in order to store gas in the alveoli, whose readiness to having their volume increased is represented by the concept of compliance, C.

Pneumologie, 2008
The phenomenon of collateral ventilation is defined as ventilation of alveolar structures through passages or channels that bypass the normal airways. Such bypassing structures can be interalveolar, bronchiole-alveolar, interbronchiole, and interlobar. Collateral ventilation structures seem to be prominent in human lungs with trapped air and emphysema.

Indoor Air, 2004
The thermal environment and air quality in buildings affects occupants' health, comfort and performance. The heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) of buildings today is designed to provide a uniform room environment. However, large individual differences exist between occupants in regard to physiological and psychological response, clothing ...
