Filter by:Over-assisted mechanical ventilation (MV) is linked to respiratory muscle disuse atrophy, while under-assisted MV can lead to patient self-inflicted lung injury (P-SILI) or respiratory muscle injuries. Both scenarios result in poor outcomes. This hypothesis aims to demonstrate the association between the degree of respiratory effort which was measured by P0.1, predicted Pmus, and predicted Δtranspulmonary pressure (ΔPL) with ventilator-free days (VFD) and 28-day mortality.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of adding aminophylline to dexmedetomidine intravenous infusion intraoperatively on oxygenation and lung mechanics in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) morbidly obese patients undergoing bariatric surgery.
To evaluate improvement of sepsis patients with a new modality of treatment (HDF)
Semi-recumbent position leads to improvement of gas exchange and lung mechanics in patients suffering from ALI or ARDS. Prone positioning leads to similar effects. To date, no data on the combination of these two positioning measures exist. The investigators hypothesize that head elevation in prone position leads to improvement in gas exchange and lung mechanics.
