Surfactant replacement increases compliance in premature lamb lungs during partial liquid ventilation in situ.
Treatments available to improve compliance in surfactant-deficient states include exogenous surfactant (ES) and either partial (PLV) or total liquid ventilation (TLV) with perfluorochemical (PFC). Because of the additional air-lung and air-PFC interfaces introduced during PLV compared with TLV, we hypothesized that compliance would be worse during PLV than during TLV. Because surfactant is able...
متن کاملPartial liquid ventilation.
Correspondence: B. Lachmann, Dept of Anesthesiology (Room Ee 2393), Erasmus University Rotterdam, Postbox 1738, 3000 DR Rotterdam, The Netherlands. There is strong indication that modes of ventilation that lead to repeated closure and opening of surfactantdeficient alveoli can induce severe functional and histological lung damage [1]. New modes of ventilation are directed at prevention of lung ...
متن کاملPerfluorochemical (PFC) exposure in children: associations with impaired response inhibition.
BACKGROUND Perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) have been used widely in consumer products since the 1950s and are currently found at detectable levels in the blood of humans and animals across the globe. In stark contrast to this widespread exposure to PFCs, there is relatively little research on potential adverse health effects of exposure to these chemicals. OBJECTIVES We performed this cross-s...
متن کاملLiquid ventilation innovations in ventilatory management.
The goal of mechanical ventilation is to maintain adequate gas exchange by opening and stabilizing alveolar units with minimal detriment to the pulmonary and circulatory systems. The optimal ventilatory strategy may be difficult to achieve, especially in patients with respiratory failure. Total liquid ventilation is a process whereby a liquid perfluorocarbon (PFC) replaces both the functional r...
متن کاملTotal and Partial Liquid Ventilation Using Perfluorocarbons
Introduction The possibilities of using liquid instead of air in the exchange of gases have always fascinated researchers. The first studied liquid was saline solution which appeared to be unsuitable for transporting gases in normobaria. Its capacity to dissolve oxygen is low, and its viscosity and density are high as compared with air. Moreover, the introduction of saline into the lung can rem...
