Filter by:To investigate the hypothesis that an alveolar recruitment maneuver after the release of pneumoperitoneum would restore the lung compliance to the baseline values after a laparoscopic gynaecologic surgery.
Children have a highly compliant chest wall and atelectasis formation occurs often during pediatric anesthesia. Inhalation induction is commonly performed in pediatric anesthesia but it is still unclear if this can have an effect on the development of atelectasis. Aim of this study is to investigate the impact of inhalation versus intravenous induction on atelectasis formation during anesthesia induction in children. Atelectasis will be evaluated with lung ultrasound before induction and right after induction.
To study the effect of high flow nasal cannula in comparisons with nasoprong used intraoperatively in patients oxygenation status
The primary objective is to evaluate the performance parameters of the proposed DLAD (Carebot AI CXR) in comparison to individual radiologists.
Background: Fiber bronchoscopy is a routine operation in intensive care unit (ICU), but it may cause local collapse of the lung. Recruitment maneuver (RM) after fiber bronchoscopy may have the potential to restore functional residual air volume and increase lung volume. However, there is still a lack of quantitative indicators to evaluate the effect of recruitment maneuver. With electrical impedance tomography (EIT), we can monitor lung ventilation in real time to understand the situation of lung ventilation. Objective: To evaluate whether recruitment maneuver after fiber bronchoscopy can improve lung volume and improve lung ventilation, and which people are most likely to benefit from it, by monitoring the end expiratory pulmonary impedance of critically ill patients undergoing bedside fiber bronchoscopy to monitor the lung ventilation before and after the operation and before and after recruitment maneuver. Study Design: A prospective observational study was conducted to monitor the end expiratory lung impedance (EELI), tidal impedance variable (TIV), global inhomogeneity (GI) index and Center of Ventilation (CoV) before and after bronchoscopy and recruitment maneuver, and then to understand the changes of lung volume and ventilation.
Statement of the problem: • Does the thoracic block technique has effect on arterial blood gases, vital signs and lung compliance in children with atelectasis on mechanical ventilation? Null hyposis there is no effect of thoracic block technique on arterial blood gases, vital signs and lung compliance in children with atelectasis on mechanical ventilation.
In anesthetized children, the incidence of lung collapse with episodes of hypoxemia is high. Diaphragmatic dysfunction induced by general anesthesia is one of the most important factors in the genesis of regional losses of lung aeration. The mass of the abdominal organs pushes the diaphragm cranially compressing the lungs in the most dependent areas. Such regional lung collapse may range from a slight loss of aeration to complete atelectasis.
Investigators conduced in the Neurological Rehabilitation Unit of the IRCCS "S.Maria Nascente - Fondazione Don Gnocchi", (Milan) a retrospective study on 19 patients hospitalized between September 2018 and February 2021, with the aim of comparing the efficacy of the two devices, MetaNeb® and Intrapulmonary Percussion Ventilation (IPV®). The efficacy was evaluated considering the change of various measures after two weeks of treatment. The main outcome considered is the atelectasis score, assigned by two radiologists who blindly and retrospectively evaluated it on high-resolution computed tomography (HRTC) images
The purpose of this study is to describe the design, methodology and evaluation of the preclinical test of Carebot AI CXR software, and to provide evidence that the investigated medical device meets user requirements in accordance with its intended use. Carebot AI CXR is defined as a recommendation system (classification "prediction") based on computer-aided detection. The software can be used in a preclinical deployment at a selected site before interpretation (prioritization, display of all results and heatmaps) or after interpretation (verification of findings) of CXR images, and in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. Given this, a retrospective study is performed to test the clinical effectiveness on existing CXRs.
In pregnancy, cephalal shift of the diaphragm caused by the enlarged uterus reduces the functional residual capacity and may increase the closure volume and predispose the pregnant woman to airway closure, leading to atelectasis. The development of atelectasis due to dermatomes retained in spinal anesthesia and intraoperative supine position may increase further. Oxygen therapy to be applied may also lead to absorption atelectasis by causing hyperoxia. The aim of our study is to evaluate the effect of oxygen support on the lungs in cesarean section operations under spinal anesthesia by lung ultrasound score and oxygen reserve index.
