Recent Advances in Pediatric Ventilatory Assistance [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

F1000Research, 2017
In this review on respiratory assistance, we aim to discuss the following recent advances: the optimization and customization of mechanical ventilation, the use of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation, and the role of noninvasive ventilation.

Ultrasound assessment of diaphragmatic dysfunction in non-critically ill patients: relevant indicators and update

Frontiers in Medicine
Diaphragm dysfunction (DD) can be classified as mild, resulting in diaphragmatic weakness, or severe, resulting in diaphragmatic paralysis. Various factors such as prolonged mechanical ventilation, surgical trauma, and inflammation can cause ...

Temporary transvenous diaphragm pacing vs. standard of care for weaning from mechanical ventilation: study protocol for a randomized trial

Trials, 2019
Background Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life-saving technology that restores or assists breathing. Like any treatment, MV has side effects. In some patients it can cause diaphragmatic atrophy, injury, and dysfunction (ventilator-induced diaphragmatic

Smad3 initiates oxidative stress and proteolysis that underlies diaphragm dysfunction during mechanical ventilation

, 2017
Prolonged use of mechanical ventilation (MV) leads to atrophy and dysfunction of the major inspiratory muscle, the diaphragm, contributing to ventilator dependence.

Diaphragm Phrenic Nerve Stimulation for the Prevention of Ventilator Induced Diaphragmatic Disorder (VIDD) in the Critical Care Setting: An Integrative Review [PDF]

Background and Purpose: In the critical care setting, over half of patients experience a complication of mechanical ventilation called Ventilator Induced Diaphragmatic Dysfunction (VIDD), and a standardized prevention has not yet been established.

Acute hypoxia-induced diaphragm dysfunction is prevented by antioxidant pre-treatment [PDF]

, 2016
Diaphragm weakness is a strong predictor of poor outcome in patients. Acute hypoxia is a feature of respiratory conditions such as acute respiratory distress syndrome and ventilator-associated lung injury.

The ReInvigorate Study—phrenic nerve-to-diaphragm stimulation for weaning from mechanical ventilation: a protocol for a randomized pivotal clinical trial

Trials
Background In the United States in 2017, there were an estimated 903,745 hospitalizations involving mechanical ventilation (MV). Complications from ventilation can result in longer hospital stays, increased risk of disability, and increased healthcare ...
