متن کاملVolumetric capnography in patients with acute lung injury: effects of positive end-expiratory pressure.
The aim of the study was to analyse the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) on volumetric capnography and respiratory system mechanics in mechanically ventilated patients. Eight normal subjects (control group), nine patients with moderate acute lung injury (ALI group) and eight patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS group) were studied. Respiratory system mechani...
متن کاملOptimization of positive end-expiratory pressure by volumetric capnography variables in lavage-induced acute lung injury.
BACKGROUND In the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), lung-protective ventilation strategies combine the delivery of small tidal volumes (VT) with sufficient positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP). However, an optimal approach guiding the setting of PEEP has not been defined. Monitoring volumetric capnography is useful to detect changes in lung aeration. OBJECTIVES The aim of this st...
متن کاملVariation in peak expiratory flow in children with asthma.
Twice daily peak expiratory flow measurements were obtained at home from 65 asthmatic children and 34 non-asthmatic controls, and a measure of the daily variation in peak expiratory flow was calculated for each child (mean daily variation). Children aged less than 7.5 years appeared unable to provide reproducable peak expiratory flows, but above that age the mean of the mean daily variations wa...
متن کاملRegional expiratory flow limitation studied with Technegas in asthma.
Regional expiratory flow limitation (EFL) may occur during tidal breathing without being detected by measurements of flow at the mouth. We tested this hypothesis by using Technegas to reveal sites of EFL. A first study (study 1) was undertaken to determine whether deposition of Technegas during tidal breathing reveals the occurrence of regional EFL in induced bronchoconstriction. Time-activity ...
