Paradoxical Respiration: An indication for Adenotonsillectomy?
Paradoxical breathing or “paradoxical inward rib cage movements” without frank sleep apnea is a clinical description of the “upper airway resistance syndrome”. Upper airway resistance syndrome is thought to be a distinct entity and not just a part of the continuum of obstructive sleep apnea; paradoxical breathing in children appears to be a separate entity from the classic patient with marked a...
متن کاملPendelluft in the bronchial tree.
Inhomogeneous inflation or deflation of the lungs can cause dynamic pressure differences between regions and lead to interregional airflows known as pendelluft. This work first uses analytical tools to clarify the theoretical limits of pendelluft at a single bifurcation. It then explores the global and regional pendelluft that may occur throughout the bronchial tree in a realistic example using...
متن کاملBistability of Mitochondrial Respiration Underlies Paradoxical Reactive Oxygen Species Generation Induced by Anoxia
Increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in mitochondria underlies major systemic diseases, and this clinical problem stimulates a great scientific interest in the mechanism of ROS generation. However, the mechanism of hypoxia-induced change in ROS production is not fully understood. To mathematically analyze this mechanism in details, taking into consideration all the possible red...
متن کاملSpontaneous effort causes occult pendelluft during mechanical ventilation.
RATIONALE In normal lungs, local changes in pleural pressure (P(pl)) are generalized over the whole pleural surface. However, in a patient with injured lungs, we observed (using electrical impedance tomography) a pendelluft phenomenon (movement of air within the lung from nondependent to dependent regions without change in tidal volume) that was caused by spontaneous breathing during mechanical...
متن کاملA new method of controlling paradoxical respiration in single stage thoracoplasty.
It is felt by the authors that there is still a distinct place for thoracoplasty in the treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis. We believe that attempts to treat every surgical case by resection will result in complications and deaths which could have been avoided by the occasional use of thoracoplasty. Furthermore, if a classical thoracoplasty could be done as described by Alexander,1 in a single...
