Ventilation And Ventilators [PDF]
The history of ventilation is reviewed briefly and recent developments in techniques of ventilation are discussed. Operating features of ventilators have changed in the past few years, partly as the result of clinical progress; yet, technology appears to have outstripped the clinician's ability to harness it most effectively.

Updating the aerodynamic resistance for subsurface ventilation [PDF]
For the safety works in the mines good ventilation is one of the main requirements. For miners’ performance, the subsurface ventilation creates healthier and more hygienic conditions. Mine ventilation has always belonged to the field of mining. Moreover,

Effect of a protective-ventilation strategy on mortality in the acute respiratory distress syndrome.
BACKGROUND In patients with the acute respiratory distress syndrome, massive alveolar collapse and cyclic lung reopening and overdistention during mechanical ventilation may perpetuate alveolar injury.

Retention of mouth-to-mouth, mouth-to-mask and mouth-to-face shield ventilation [PDF]
Background: Retention of mouth-to-mouth, mouth-to-mask and mouth-to-face shield ventilation techniques is poorly understood.Methods: A prospective randomised clinical trial was undertaken in January 2004 in 70 candidates randomly assigned to training in ...

Evaluating single-sided natural ventilation models against full-scale idealised measurements: impact of wind direction and turbulence [PDF]
Commonly single-sided natural ventilation is used in temperate climates to provide comfortable and healthy indoor environments. However, within built-up areas it is difficult to predict natural ventilation rates for buildings as they depend on many flow ...

Official ERS/ATS clinical practice guidelines: noninvasive ventilation for acute respiratory failure
Noninvasive mechanical ventilation (NIV) is widely used in the acute care setting for acute respiratory failure (ARF) across a variety of aetiologies. This document provides European Respiratory Society/American Thoracic Society recommendations for the ...

Indoor Air Quality Assessment: Comparison of Ventilation Scenarios for Retrofitting Classrooms in a Hot Climate [PDF]
Current energy e ciency policies in buildings foster the promotion of energy retrofitting of the existing stock. In southern Spain, the most extensive public sector is that of educational buildings, which is especially subject to significant internal ...
