Pulmonary function after prolonged mechanical ventilation with high concentrations of oxygen.
The mortality and morbidity resulting from mechanical ventilation with high concentrations of inspired oxygen has been investigated in two groups of patients. Ninety-one patients requiring mechanical ventilation for pulmonary disease included six (group 1) in whom death was attributed directly to respiratory failure but only three in whom oxygen toxicity might have been relevant. Review of the ...
متن کاملBilateral Scapulohumeral Ankylosis after Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation
This case demonstrates a rarely reported bilateral scapulohumeral bony ankylosis. A young woman developed extensive heterotopic ossifications (HOs) in both shoulder joints after being mechanically ventilated for several months at the intensive care unit in a comatose status. She presented with a severe movement restriction of both shoulder joints. Surgical resection of the bony bridges was perf...
متن کاملHigh central venous pressure is associated with prolonged mechanical ventilation and increased mortality after lung transplantation.
BACKGROUND Poor oxygenation might occur in transplanted lungs as a result of reperfusion injury and lack of lymphatic drainage. Low central venous and pulmonary capillary wedge pressures are advocated to reduce pulmonary edema and maximize oxygenation but might adversely affect cardiac index, circulation, and renal function. METHODS Histories, intensive care unit charts, and donor data on 118...
متن کاملCauses of prolonged mechanical ventilation after coronary artery bypass surgery.
STUDY OBJECTIVE To evaluate causes of failure to be extubated (FTE) after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. DESIGN Prospective observational study. SETTING Cardiovascular surgical ICU. PATIENTS Four hundred patients undergoing CABG surgery. Following surgery, patients were extubated by a standardized respiratory protocol and were assessed at 8, 24, and 48 h. Patients who could ...
متن کاملPredictors of Prolonged Mechanical Ventilation after Open Heart Surgery
INTRODUCTION Due to the importance of prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) as a postoperative complication, predicting "high-risk" patients by identifying predisposing risk factors is of important issue. The present study was aimed to identify perioperative variables associated with PMV in patients undergoing open heart surgery. METHODS A total of 743 consecutive patients, American Society ...
