Weaning from the ventilator in patients with respiratory failure [PDF]

, 1994
Weaning from the ventilator is the gradual withdrawal of mechanical ventilatory support. Mechanical ventilation is well-accepted as rescue therapy in patients with life-threatening respiratory failure.

Predictive performance of the variation rate of the driving pressure on the outcome of invasive mechanical ventilation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome

Chinese Journal of Traumatology
Purpose: To assess the value of the driving pressure variation rate (ΔP%) in predicting the outcome of weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome.

A comprehensive protocol for ventilator weaning and extubation: a prospective observational study

Journal of Intensive Care, 2019
Background Ventilator weaning protocols have been shown to reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation (MV), intensive care unit length of stay, and resource use.

Perioperative Management for Patients With Spinal Muscular Atrophy Undergoing Scoliosis Surgery: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
This largest Asian case series confirms that posterior spinal fusion for SMA scoliosis is safe and effective despite severe deformity and markedly impaired pulmonary function. Meticulous multidisciplinary care, including advanced airway planning, hemodynamic support, blood management, and proactive electrolyte correction, is critical to optimizing ...

Outcomes of a Routine Screening Protocol to Prevent Metamycoplasma and Ureaplasma Infection in Lung Transplant Recipients

Transplant Infectious Disease, EarlyView.
This study analyzed outcomes of an early Mollicute (Mycoplasma hominis and Ureaplasma spp.) screening protocol using BAL PCR with preemptive treatment and ammonia monitoring in lung transplant recipients. This appears to be a practical and reasonably effective approach for preventing early Mollicute infection and hyperammonemia syndrome.

Medical Management With Mechanical Ventilation of a Dog With Severe Barium Sulfate Aspiration

Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To describe the medical management with mechanical ventilation of a dog with severe barium sulfate aspiration and concurrent canine acute eosinophilic dermatitis with edema. Case summary A 26‐month‐old castrated male Golden Retriever was presented in respiratory distress after the accidental administration of approximately 300 mL of ...

Direct sunlight and ventilator weaning outcomes

, 2012
It was hypothesized and found that patients on long-term mechanical ventilation assigned to rooms with windows yielding more access to direct sunlight demonstrated faster ventilator weaning outcomes than patients assigned to rooms that had windows that ...

Applying lessons from limb muscle disuse and ageing to better understand ventilator‐induced diaphragm dysfunction

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Mechanical ventilation (MV) is a life‐saving intervention applied to critically ill patients. A common consequence of MV is ventilator‐induced diaphragm dysfunction (VIDD), which is characterized by significant diaphragm atrophy and reduced contractile function. Older patients who receive MV are more likely to develop VIDD, have worse recovery,

Mitochondrial control of ciliary gene expression and structure in striatal neurons

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Neurons drive animal behaviour by receiving and transmitting information and require energy, primarily supplied by mitochondria, to function. Additionally, neurons need to sense environmental changes to adapt, a function that is locally played by the primary cilia.
