View clinical trials related to Mechanical Power.
Filter by:The respiratory system receives mechanical power (MP) throughout time during mechanical ventilation. Despite its life-saving benefits, mechanical ventilation can cause ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Recently, VILI has been linked to mechanical power, or the amount of energy the mechanical ventilator sends to the respiratory system in a given time. The hunt for lung damage-reducing characteristics, notably after VILI and ARDS (Acute respiratory distress syndrome), has increased after Covid-19. Mechanical power must be used more to promote lung protection. We examined the effects of bilateral rectus sheath and OSTAP (Oblique Subcostal Transversus Abdominis Plane ) block on mechanically powered patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare three open-lung strategies on respiratory function and lung injury in protective ventilation for laparoscopic anterior resection. It aims to answer whether a periodic alveolar recruitment maneuvers (PARM) strategy alone was an appropriate open-lung strategy in intraoperative protective ventilation. Patients were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to receive one of three open-lung strategies in protective ventilation: PARM alone (alveolar recruitment maneuvers [ARM] repeated every 30 min), positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) alone (a PEEP of 6 to 8 cm H2O), or a combination of PEEP and PARM (a PEEP of 6 to 8 cm H2O combined with ARM repeated every 30 min). The primary outcome is the mechanical power before the end of intraoperative mechanical ventilation. Secondary outcomes included the accumulative intraoperative mechanical power, an arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) / inhaled oxygen concentration (FiO2) ratio (P/F ratio) before the end of intraoperative mechanical ventilation, the rates of respiratory failure at post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) and three postoperative days, the concentration of soluble advanced glycation end products receptor (sRAGE) and Clara cell protein 16 (CC16) at the end of surgery, postoperative pulmonary complications score, postoperative hospitalization days and so on.
Several studies suggest fully-automated ventilation to ventilate with a lower amount of MP in unselected ICU patients, patients after cardiac surgery, and patients with and without ARDS. The current study will directly compare the amount of MP in invasively ventilated critically ill patients by calculating MP breath-by-breath, using the various equations proposed in the literature.
Prospective, observational, longitudinal study, September 2019 to March 2020 of all adult patients who required invasive mechanical ventilation treated at General Hospital of Zone 11 IMSS in Piedras Negras, Coahuila. The investigators aim to assess the relation of lung protective ventilation, mechanical power and driving pressure in mortality and SOFA of mechanically ventilated patients inside and outside ICU at the General Hospital of Zona 11 Piedras Negras, IMSS
