Filter by:Given the scarcity of studies aimed at assessing the effect of anesthesia and m ventilation on the distribution of lung ventilation in pediatric patients undergoing surgery, with the exclusion of thoracic surgery, the present prospective observational study would shed the light on ventilation practice in pediatric anesthesia for surgery. This study wold fill the actual gap allowing the evaluation, through electrical impedance tomography (EIT) of the distribution of lung ventilation across the different phases of anesthesia for pediatric surgery. These insights could contribute to improve clinical practice and research in the management of ventilation in pediatric patients undergoing anesthesia for surgery.
This is an investigator-initiated, international, multicenter, prospective, cross-sectional study that aims to 1) describe the incidence and types of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs), 2) describe patient demographics, baseline characteristics, and intraoperative ventilation management, 3) describe the occurrence of intraoperative adverse events (IAEs), and 4) their associations with PPCs, 5) assess the practice of intraoperative mechanical ventilation. Patients will be eligible for participation if: 1) adult and 2) receiving intraoperative ventilation during general anesthesia for surgery. Patients receiving ventilation outside of an operating room as well as patients receiving intraoperative ventilation during extracorporeal life support will be excluded
The goal of this study is to compare two continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) settings on heart and lung function in patients with severe obesity after anesthesia. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does a recruitment maneuver and CPAP set to intrathoracic pressure (ITP) improve cardiopulmonary function compared to standard CPAP settings in patients with severe obesity after anesthesia? 2. Does the location of adipose tissue influence the response to CPAP settings in patients with severe obesity after anesthesia? Participants will undergo monitoring of their intrathoracic pressure using an esophageal catheter. In the recovery area after anesthesia, participants will receive two CPAP settings, each for 20 minutes. - Intervention 1: Recruitment maneuver and CPAP will set to the level of intrathoracic pressure - Intervention 2: CPAP set to home settings (if OSA is present) or between 8-10 cmH20 (if OSA is not present).
'POStoperative INTELLiVENT-adaptive support VEntilation in cardiac surgery patients II (POSITiVE II) is an investigator-initiated, international, multicenter, parallel, randomized clinical trial in patients after cardiac surgery.
Patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) may require breathing support with machines depending on the condition. Throughout the breathing support, the settings on the breathing machines will be tailored to the patient's requirements. These settings are manually adjusted by trained physicians. Currently, there are machines which can automatically change the settings based on real-time specific information obtained from the patient. This study aims to compare the use of machines which require manual adjustments (open-loop conventional ventilators) and machines which can automatically change the settings (closed-loop automated ventilators). Patients will be carefully selected to ensure no harm is caused whilst delivering the best care. This study will look into the duration when patients are receiving optimum settings and levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the blood. The outcomes of this study would allow us to identify methods to improve patient care.
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.
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.
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.
Prospective multicenter randomized controlled trial. Individualized perioperative open lung ventilatory approach in emergency abdominal laparotomy.
The peak inspiratory pressure during face mask ventilation for general anesthesia is closely correlated with gastric insufflation. High pressure increases the amount of air in stomach and low pressure could decrease the tidal volume, therefore ideal pressure means the pressure guarantee adequate ventilation with minimal gastric insufflation. The aim of this study is finding the proper pressure and mode of face mask ventilation in pediatric patients.
