Preventing ventilation-induced lung injury and bronchopulmonary dysplasia is an important goal in the care of ventilated neonates. Recently, there have been tremendous efforts to improve ventilation strategies, which aim at ventilating with a 'protective' and 'open-lung' strategy.

Clinics in Chest Medicine, 2000
Considerable clinical experience confirms that oxygenation can be improved in many patients with ARDS by employing prone ventilation. The improvement occurs because, in the prone position, the lung fits into the thorax such that lung distention is more uniform and compressive forces extant in the supine position, which serve to cause dorsal airspace ...

Ventilator waveforms are graphic representations of changes in pressure, flow, and volume within a ventilator circuit. The changes in these parameters over time may be displayed individually (scalars) or plotted one against another (pressure-volume and flow-volume loops).

Ventilating the debate: elective ventilation revisited
Journal of Medical Ethics, 2013This issue of the Journal of Medical Ethics features a special symposium on ‘elective ventilation’ (EV). EV (also known as ‘non-therapeutic ventilation’ (box 1)) was originally described in the 1990s by doctors working in Exeter in the UK.1 At that time there was concern about the large shortfall in organs for transplantation.

The Ventilator Circuit and Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia
Respiratory Care, 2005Historically, the relationship between the ventilator circuit and pulmonary infection was accepted as fact, without any scientific evidence. Hence the term, "ventilator"-associated pneumonia. Recent evidence, however, has demonstrated that the major sources of pneumonia in the ventilated patient are colonization of the gastrointestinal tract, with ...

ICU Ventilators Versus BiPAP Ventilators in Noninvasive Ventilation
2016In contrast to the closed-circuit ventilation of invasive ventilation, noninvasive ventilation (NIV) is an open-circuit ventilation where leaks are inherent and, paradoxically, essential to its success. The success of NIV, whether in the acute setting, weaning, or long-term therapy is dependent on all three aspects for its use, appropriate patient ...

Non-invasive ventilation (NIV) refers to the delivery of positive pressure to the airways and lungs in the absence of an intratracheal tube or an extra-glottic device. The term “NIV” includes both continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) and any form of non-invasive inspiratory positive pressure ventilation (NPPV), in which an expiratory positive ...

Annals of Internal Medicine, 1994
We used bilevel positive airway pressure ventilation (BiPAP; Respironics, Inc.) through a nasal mask to ventilate 57 consecutive, unselected patients with acute respiratory failure who were unresponsive to oxygen and medical therapy alone. We applied noninvasive positive pressure ventilation for almost 22 hours daily, with a median inspiratory positive

Current Opinion in Critical Care, 2001
Partial liquid ventilation (PLV) developed considerably in the clinical and experimental fields during the past few years. In addition to improved oxygenation and lung mechanics by perfluorocarbon (PFC) administration, recent animal studies have tried to optimize PLV by evaluating the most appropriate ventilatory mode to use during PLV and by adjusting

Ventilation/Perfusion Changes During Mechanical Ventilation
Diseases of the Chest, 1969Changes in arterial blood gases occurring during mechanical ventilation of a patient with extensive pulmonary disease have been presented. The Pa o2 and A-aDO 2 values observed in this patient demonstrate that various areas of V ˙ A / Q ˙ imbalance exist simultaneously in the diseased lung.
