Respiratory mechanics in patients ventilated for critical lung disease.
Respiratory mechanics, using flow interruption, was previously studied during the complete breath in healthy ventilated man, numerical techniques relieving constraints regarding flow pattern. The classical linear model of non-Newtonian behaviour was found to be valid. The present study was extended to subjects with critical lung disease. Subjects with acute lung injury (ALI; n = 2), acute respi...
متن کاملRespiratory mechanics in mechanically ventilated patients.
Respiratory mechanics refers to the expression of lung function through measures of pressure and flow. From these measurements, a variety of derived indices can be determined, such as volume, compliance, resistance, and work of breathing. Plateau pressure is a measure of end-inspiratory distending pressure. It has become increasingly appreciated that end-inspiratory transpulmonary pressure (str...
متن کاملForced oscillation assessment of respiratory mechanics in ventilated patients
The forced oscillation technique (FOT) is a method for non-invasively assessing respiratory mechanics that is applicable both in paralysed and non-paralysed patients. As the FOT requires a minimal modification of the conventional ventilation setting and does not interfere with the ventilation protocol, the technique is potentially useful to monitor patient mechanics during invasive and noninvas...
متن کاملRelationships between capnogram parameters and respiratory mechanics in ventilated patients
Capnography is one of the most frequently used monitoring methods in anaesthesia and intensive therapy. However, details as to how the resistive and/or elastic properties of the respiratory system affect the various indices derived from the capnogram curve are lacking from the literature. The aims of the present thesis were therefore to establish the connections between the various phase, shape...
متن کاملChanges in respiratory mechanics during respiratory physiotherapy in mechanically ventilated patients
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the changes in ventilatory mechanics and hemodynamics that occur in patients dependent on mechanical ventilation who are subjected to a standard respiratory therapy protocol. METHODS This experimental and prospective study was performed in two intensive care units, in which patients dependent on mechanical ventilation for more than 48 hours were consecutively enrolled an...
