MANUAL JET VENTILATION V . HIGH FREQUENCY JET VENTILATION DURING LASER RESECTION OF TRACHEO-BRONCHIAL STENOSIS

Manual jet ventilation v. high frequency jet ventilation during laser resection of tracheo-bronchial stenosis.

Manual jet ventilation (20 b.p.m.) and high frequency jet ventilation (300 b.p.m.) were compared during laser resection of tracheo-bronchial stenosis under general anaesthesia. Both methods provided similar blood-gas tensions at the 10th min of surgery in patients with tracheal stenosis. In patients with bronchial stenosis high frequency jet ventilation resulted in modest hypercarbia and manual...

High - frequency Jet Ventilation

High-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) describes a technique of mechanical respiratory support based on the delivery of gases under conditions of constant flow and low pressure. Among the benefits ascribed to HFJV are lessened interference with hemodynamic function and reduced danger of barofrauma. The theoretical and technical aspects of HFJV are discussed and the clinical experience with 39 pa...

High Frequency Jet Ventilation of One Lung using a Bronchial Blocker of Univent during Carinal Resection

Airway management during carinal resection should provide adequate ventilation and oxygenation as well as a good surgical field, but without complications such as barotraumas or aspiration. One method of airway management is high frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) of one lung or both lungs. We describe a patient undergoing carinal resection, who was managed with HFJV of one lung, using a de-ballo...

Frequency dependence of lung volume changes during superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation and high-frequency jet ventilation.

BACKGROUND Superimposed high-frequency jet ventilation (SHFJV) has proved to be safe and effective in clinical practice. However, it is unclear which frequency range optimizes ventilation and gas exchange. The aim of this study was to systematically compare high-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) with HFJV by assessing chest wall volume variations (ΔEEV(CW)) and gas exchange in relation to variab...
