Filter by:Ninety adult patients from both gender, with acute respiratory failure, intubated and mechanically ventilated. Their ages ranged from 50 to 70 years. They were selected from Intensive Care Unit (ICU), Department of Chest Diseases, Cairo University Hospitals. They have randomly assigned into three equal groups. Group (A): trained by threshold IMT device plus routine physical therapy. Group (B): trained by adjusting MV trigger sensitivity plus routine physical therapy. Group (C): only received routine physical therapy. (Negative inspiratory force NIF, arterial blood gases, P/F ration, respiratory rate RR, tidal volume VT, and rapid shallow breathing index RSBI) were measured before the study and at the end of the study (just before weaning for successfully weaned patients, or on the 10 day of intervention for failed weaning patients).
The goal of this diagnostic study is to validate estimation of inspiratory muscle pressure by an artificial intelligence algorithm compared to the gold standard, the measure from an esophageal catheter balloon, in patients under assisted mechanical ventilation. The main questions it aims to answer are: • Are inspiratory muscle pressure estimates from an artificial intelligence algorithm accurate when compared to the direct measure from an esophageal balloon? Participants will be monitored with an esophageal balloon and with an artificial intelligence algorithm simultaneously, with inspiratory muscle pressure estimation during assisted mechanical ventilation with decremental levels of pressure support.
Measurements of esophageal pressure (Pes) as surrogate for pleural pressure are routinely performed in selected ICU patients to facilitate lung-protective ventilation and assess breathing effort. Pes is clinically measured via a nasogastric esophageal catheter. Current techniques involve balloon catheters but have some important disadvantages as they could deflate over time and require a very precise positioning and filling volume. A solid-state sensor does not have disadvantages associated with balloon catheters and may therefore be a useful alternative in clinical practice. This method-comparison study in adult mechanically ventilated ICU patients evaluates the accuracy of Pes measured using an esophageal catheter with a solid-state sensor as compared to a balloon catheter as reference standard.
We hypothesized that diaphragm thickness is concerned in acute respiratory failure of COVID19 patients and its ultrasound measure at the begining of hospitalisation is a good predictor of poor outcome. A prospective observational non intervention study is designed.
High flow nasal cannula (HFNC) oxygen therapy is increasingly used for hypoxemic respiratory failure and is proving useful in avoiding or delaying intubation and mechanical ventilation. However, basic information regarding the physiologic effects of this method is missing. In this study, the effects of oxygen delivery by HFNC on oxygenation, ventilation and cardiovascular vital signs in patients with mild hypoxemic respiratory failure were evaluated.
Rib fractures are the most frequent injury after blunt thoracic trauma. It is very important to choose the most appropriate interventions to prevent complications. But who will benefit most of those interventions remains a challenge. This study analyses the correlation between chest X-Ray and CT scan. We also analyse different scores to predict respiratory failure.
The optimal timing of tracheostomy insertion remains uncertain. We hypothesized that a clinical pathway including expert-informed risk assessment regarding predicted duration of mechanical (MV) would enhance the effectiveness of early percutaneous dilatational tracheostomy (PDT) for patients with anticipated prolonged durations of MV, as reflected by duration of ventilation, complications, and patient-centered outcomes.
The study was a retrospective observational cohort where patient medical record review was done and data were gathered on 419 cases. The ICU admission pattern and patient outcome were the primary outcomes presented in the manuscript.
The study is aimed at the clinical and laboratory characteristics of patients with completed vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 admitted to the hospital in the standard ward and intensive care unit due to the severe course of COVID-19.
The study will be a multicenter, multinational, prospective single arm blinded non-interventional follow-up study (from DXT-CS-005) to validate RESPINOR DXT's performance to identify patients at increased risk of weaning failure during the spontaneous breathing trial (SBT). Continuous diaphragmatic excursion measurements by RESPINOR DXT will be conducted during the patients' first SBT. The recording shall be initiated 15 minutes prior to the first SBT and will end 15 minutes post SBT. All patients on mechanical ventilation in the ICU meeting the eligibility criteria shall undergo a daily screen for weaning readiness. If any of the components of the daily screen is not met, the patient will not undergo a SBT that day and continued to be screened daily. Patients passing daily screening criteria shall automatically receive an SBT. The SBT shall last for 30-120 minutes and be performed on continuous positive airway pressure up to 5 cm H2O and pressure support up to 7 cm H2O. The SBT shall be terminated, and mechanical ventilation reinstituted at the original settings if the patient meets any of the SBT failure criteria. A trial is considered successful, and physicians will be asked to approve extubation when the patient can breathe spontaneously for the whole trial. As part of the clinical investigation, patients shall be continued to be screened daily until extubation, 21 days after enrollment, the performance of tracheostomy, death, or withdrawal of care. All patients shall be followed until hospital discharge or death.
