Neonatal mechanical ventilation: Indications and outcome
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Decreasing mortality in sick and ventilated neonates is an endeavor of all neonatologists. To reduce the high mortality in this group of neonates, identification of risk factors is important. This study was undertaken to find out the indications of ventilation and complications in ventilated neonates and also study possible predictors of outcome. SUBJECTS Age <1-month; mec...
متن کاملDiaphragmatic contraction during assisted mechanical ventilation.
Indirect evidence from airway pressure recordings in mechanically ventilated patients suggests that the diaphragm exhibits contractile activity beyond that required to trigger a ventilator-assisted breath. We used the diaphragmatic EMG to provide direct evidence of persistent contractile activity and studied the effects of alterations in ventilator-delivered flow rate and tidal volume on the du...
متن کاملAssisted mechanical ventilation: the future is now!
Assisted ventilation is a highly complex process that requires an intimate interaction between the ventilator and the patient. The complexity of this form of ventilation is frequently underappreciated by the bedside clinician. In assisted mechanical ventilation, regardless of the specific mode, the ventilator's gas delivery pattern and the patient's breathing pattern must match near perfectly o...
متن کاملUPDATE IN INTENSIVE CARE MEDICINE: MECHANICAL VENTILATION New modes of assisted mechanical ventilation
Recent major advances in mechanical ventilation have resulted in new exciting modes of assisted ventilation. Compared to traditional ventilation modes such as assisted-controlled ventilation or pressure support ventilation, these new modes offer a number of physiological advantages derived from the improved patient control over the ventilator. By implementing advanced closed-loop control system...
متن کاملPediatric mechanical ventilation in India. Need, indications, cost and problems.
We are undertaking mechanical ventilation (MV) seriously since three years, begining with infants and children and then including neonates also. MV is provided to about 15 cases every month presently, 1 to 3 cases receiving it at a time. MV typically lasts for a few days, longest duration having been 37 days. Overall survival of 30% in 1992 is steadily improving. The following presentation of o...
