Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare flow-controlled ventilation (FCV) and pressure-controlled ventilation (PCV) in patients with moderate to severe acute respiratory distress syndrome on the intensive care unit. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is the mechanical power during flow-controlled ventilation lower than during pressure-controlled ventilation - To gain more understanding about other physiological effects and potential benefits of flow-controlled ventilation in comparison to pressure-controlled ventilation (o.a. the end-expiratory lung volume and homogeneity of ventilation). Participants will be randomized between two ventilation mode sequences, being 90 minutes of FCV followed by 90 minutes of PCV or vice versa.
This will be a prospective observational study where the investigator will scan patients' necks with an ultrasound and look for anatomical landmarks that may help identify the phrenic nerve.
Introduction: Intraoperative Mechanical Ventilation practices can lead to ventilator-associated lung injury (VILI) and postoperative pulmonary complications in healthy lungs. Mechanical Power has been developed as a new concept in reducing the risk of postoperative pulmonary complications as it takes into account all respiratory mechanics that cause VILI formation. Volume control mode is at the forefront in the old anesthesia devices used in the operating room, and today, together with technology, there are anesthesia devices with many modes and features, as in intensive care units. This causes confusion in the use of mechanical ventilators. In this study, volume and pressure control ventilation modes were compared in terms of respiratory mechanics (including mechanical power) in patients operated in the supine and prone positions. Aim of study: It has been compared the effects on postoperative pulmonary complications (PPH) in terms of VILI risk by calculating mechanical power from advanced respiratory mechanics of patients ventilated in pressure and volume control modes, which are frequently used in operating room applications. Conclusion: There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in terms of demographic data, ariscat score, and ariscat risk group values. The supine and prone mechanical power (MPrs) values of the volume control group were statistically significantly lower than the pressure control group. P values were calculated as 0.012 and 0.001, respectively. Results: Supine and prone MPrs values of the volume control group were calculated significantly lower than the pressure control group. Pressure-controlled intraoperative mechanical ventilation is considered to be disadvantageous in terms of the risk of VILI in the supine and prone position in terms of the current mechanical power concept.
Patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have a significantly increased risk of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPC). Protective ventilation of the lungs could reduce the rate of PPC in patients with COPD. It has been suggested that flow controlled ventilation (FCV) may be less invasive and more protective to the lungs than conventional ventilation in patients with COPD. The primary aim of this study is to determine a optimal individual ventilation setting for FCV in ten participants with COPD.
The primary aim of this work is to evaluate the role of high frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) in recruitment of lung in preterm newborns 32 to 37 weeks gestational age with moderate to severe respiratory distress. The secondary aim is to evaluate the role of chest ultrasound in monitoring of lung recruitment in comparison to routine chest x ray in those babies. Also cardiac hemodynamics will be assesed using functional echocardiography.
Comparison of mechanical powers produced at volume controlled and pressure controlled mechanical ventilation
The aim of our study is to assess the beneficial effect of sustained inflations as a recruitment manoeuvre, using LUS examinations, on the degree of lung atelectasis that occurs in pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery. Objectives - To assess the effect of general anaesthesia and capnoperitoneum on lung atelectasis in the paediatric patients by using LUS examination - To assess the effect of sustained inflations as a recruitment manoeuvre in decreasing lung atelectasis caused by general anaesthesia and capnoperitoneum by using LUS examination Hypothesis Our main hypothesis is that the use of repeated Sustained Inflation as a recruitment manoeuvre in pediatric patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery will result in decreased atelectasis compared to conventional ventilation.
This randomized controlled study's objective is to find a safer mechanical ventilation strategy to reduce intraoperative bleeding in liver cancer patients undergoing laparoscopic major liver resection. The hypothesis is that low tidal volume ventilation in laparoscopic major hepatectomy results in less bleeding.
This is a single centre, open-label, feasibility randomised controlled trial. The study aims to assess the feasibility of conducting an RCT to compare the PneuX ETT with standard care in hospitalised patients requiring mechanical ventilation. The patient population for this study are those who are experiencing critical illness requiring intubation and ventilatory support. Patients will be randomised in equal proportions into one of 2 arms: to be intubated using a Venner PneuX Endotracheal Tube (ETT) or using the standard tube. For this feasibility study, a total of 50 patients will be randomised into two groups (25 in each). All patients will be recruited at a single site (University Hospital of Wales, part of Cardiff & Vale UHB). The study will investigate several feasibility measures including recruitment, delivery of the intervention (including device-related adverse events), acceptability and adherence to the intervention and sampling, use of Peptest to measure microaspiration events, rate of pepsin positive samples, rate of tracheobronchial colonisation, volume of sub-glottic aspirate, rate of VAP, length of ICU and hospital stay, demonstrate the validity of study documentation and provide preliminary data for 50 patients. The data will inform the pilot and main phase of the study.
This is a prospective, single-center, observational study to describe characteristics of weaning process and factors associated with duration of weaning and its outcomes in all consecutive adult (aged 19 years and older) patients receiving mechanical ventilation for at least two calendar days in medical intensive care units since November 2017. Details of the patients' weaning process and spontaneous breathing trial (SBT) in addition to clinical, laboratory, and outcome data will be collected in a specified format on the day of the assessment by respiratory care practitioners.
