Filter by:This study evaluates the correlation between maximum inspiratory pressure (Pi max) and the diaphragm maximum inspiratory excursion measured with ultrasound during the weaning from invasive mechanical ventilation.
This study will evaluate the heart, lungs and diaphragm of patients who fail a trial of spontaneous breathing to determine the physiological mechanism of weaning failure.
To evaluate the distribution of different types of difficult weaning and the predictive value of weaning relative factors.
It has been showed that over assist and patient ventilator asynchrony often occur in mechanical ventilated patients, especially in patients who failed weaning, which are associated with a prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation.Neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NAVA) improves patient-ventilator synchrony, prevents excessive assist induced diaphragm inactivation. So the aim of this study was to detect that whether NAVA compared with PSV has the ability to reduce the duration of weaning in difficult to wean patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the diaphragm develops contractile fatigue during a weaning trial and if this is associated with weaning failure.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether deflating the tracheal cuff in tracheostomized patients, during disconnections from ventilatory support along the weaning phase shortens the weaning time.
Background: the objective of the present inquiry was to evaluate the weaning process in intubated older people subjected to inspiratory muscle training and to correlate the predictors of ventilatory interruption with its success. Methods: the patients were divided randomly into an experimental group (EG, n=14; age=82±4 years) that received conventional physiotherapy plus inspiratory muscle training (IMT) with threshold IMT® and a control group (CG, n=14; age=81±6 years) that received only conventional physiotherapy. The predictors evaluates were the maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP) and the index of Tobin (IT). The protocol for muscle training consisted of an initial load of 30% MIP, which was increased by 10% daily; training was administered for five minutes, twice a day, seven times a week with supplemental oxygen for the entire period from the decision to wean up to extubation.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether counseling sessions on breastfeeding for adolescent mothers and their grandmothers in the maternity ward and at home are effective in to improve the exclusive and total breastfeeding rates during the first six month, as well as the convenient timing of supplementary feeding introduction.
When mothers wanted to shift from breast milk to infant formulae, babies were randomly assigned to receive a fermented or a standard formula. Biological and clinical investigations were achieved at baseline (V1), and after one (V2) and three months (V3) of consumption of study formula. Intestinal microbiota was assessed by using culture-dependent techniques.
The objective of this study was to analyze changes in cardiac function using Doppler echocardiogram in critical patients during weaning from mechanical ventilation using two different weaning methods (pressure support and T-tube) and to compare a subgroup of patients: success vs. failure in weaning and patients with vs. without heart disease.
