A lung-protective ventilation strategy requires optimal PEEP and tidal volume settings. Finding and maintaining these crucial settings during the course of therapy is challenging - even for ...

The high oesophageal pressure imposes a threshold load on inspiration. The obese individual has the option of breathing at low lung volumes, with limited tidal volume, or increasing V t by adopting a ...

The effect of triggered and untriggered inflations on the inflation pressures and tidal volumes has not been reported. Volume-targeted modes of neonatal ventilation are used to reduce volutrauma and ...

Given the small variability and lack of association between tidal volume and outcome, the differences in peak pressures may be explained by subtle differences in lung mechanics and thus function at ...

Two-minute review. The Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin Pro Edition is part of a great lineage. It’s been almost 20 years since the ...

A VILI mouse model was established using high-tidal volume ventilation, and lung tissue was stained with HE and TUNEL. The present study used high-throughput sequencing technology to analyze the ...

Conversely, if the leak is small the tidal volumes may be excessive and cause over ventilation and lung damage. Observation of a continuous display of leak and V T will help the operator to quickly ...

The peak inspiratory flow, peak expiratory flow, tidal volume, minute volume, total breathing time, and breathing rate were recorded. 2.4 Lung wet/dry weight (W/D) ratio For lung W/D ratio estimations ...

A research team has developed a multi-medium approach (MMA) to identify reproducible volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in ...

Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) scientists are studying Saturn's moon Titan to assess its tidal dissipation rate, the ...

Patients who received an endobronchial valve vs. lung volume reduction surgery had significantly heightened odds for mortality and readmission. Risk adjustment is important in future research on ...
