Liquid 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 کاملAdaptive Support Ventilation as the sole mode of ventilatory support in chronically ventilated patients.
OBJECTIVE To describe the outcome of patients admitted to a new private facility for chronically ventilated patients in the Ashdod area of Israel. METHODS On arrival, all patients were placed on Adaptive Support Ventilation (ASV) at 90% of target minute ventilation for lean body weight, reducing progressively in weekly decrements of 10% down to 60% of target minute ventilation if adequate spo...
متن کاملNoninvasive ventilatory support after lung resectional surgery.
STUDY OBJECTIVES To investigate the short-term effects of noninvasive ventilatory support (NIVS) on pulmonary gas exchange, ventilatory pattern, systemic hemodynamics, and pleural air leaks in patients submitted to elective lung resection. DESIGN Prospective, randomized, parallel, and controlled investigation. SETTING Thoracic Surgery Unit, Hospital Universitari Son Dureta, Palma Mallorca, ...
متن کاملNoninvasive motion ventilation (NIMV): a novel approach to ventilatory support.
A motion platform was developed that oscillates an animal in a foot-to-head direction (z-plane). The platform varies the frequency and intensity of acceleration, imparting periodic sinusoidal inertial forces (pG(z)) to the body. The aim of the study was to characterize ventilation produced by the noninvasive motion ventilator (NIMV) in animals with healthy and diseased lungs. Incremental increa...
متن کاملVentilation/perfusion mismatch caused by positive pressure ventilatory support.
In a patient with lobar atelectasis who was on positive pressure ventilatory support, ventilation and perfusion images showed absent ventilation and normal perfusion (reverse mismatch) in the region of the atelectasis and normal ventilation and decreased perfusion (true mismatch) not caused by pulmonary embolism in another lung zone. We report this case to emphasize that the lung scan findings ...
