Elective tracheostomy in mechanically ventilated children.
Tracheostomy is an important procedure in children requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation. We conducted a retrospective study to assess the frequency, indications, postoperative course and short-term outcome of elective tracheostomy in a Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) of Pakistan. Twenty-five patients underwent tracheostomy in last 5 years (2.2 % of all PICU admissions). Mean age of ...
متن کاملSevere and early quadriceps weakness in mechanically ventilated patients
Sedation condition, RASS score −3.8 ± 1.5 ICU-acquired weakness has been reported in patients with prolonged mechanical ventilation [1], leading to prolonged weaning, poor quality of life after ICU discharge, and high ICU-related cost [2]. Muscle weakness is the primary manifestation of critical illness polyneuropathy or myopathy or both. Although quadriceps strength has never been objectively ...
متن کاملBronchoscopy in Mechanically Ventilated Patients
The origins of bronchoscopy date back to 1897 when Gustav Killian, considered “the father of bronchoscopy”, performed the first airway examination with a rigid esophagoscope to a farmer extracting a piece of bone that had lodged in the main stem bronchus. Shigeto Ikeda in 1964 revolutionized the field of bronchoscopy with the introduction of a flexible instrument that could be introduced to sub...
متن کاملControlled expiration in mechanically-ventilated patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
In patients with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), lung emptying may be affected by flow limitation. We tested the hypothesis that the airway compression leading to flow limitation can be counteracted by controlling the expiratory flow. The effects of an external resistor on lung emptying were studied in six patients with COPD, who were mechanically ventilated whilst sedated ...
متن کاملComparison between measured and predicted resting energy expenditure in mechanically ventilated patients with COPD.
The aim of this study was to compare resting energy expenditure (REE) obtained by indirect calorimetry (IC) and Harris-Benedict (H-B) equations, and to examine whether hypocaloric nutrition support could improve protein nutritional status in mechanically ventilated patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Thirtythree COPD patients (20 males, 13 females) were recruited and REE...
