Respiratory function during wakefulness and sleep among survivors of respiratory and non-respiratory poliomyelitis.
The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a difference in respiratory mechanics and gas exchange between polio survivors and healthy, age-matched controls during wakefulness and sleep. Polio survivors were divided into four groups. The first group included those who had evidence of respiratory muscle involvement originally (PRM) and the second group included those who had bulb...
متن کاملRespiratory function during pressure support ventilation.
Pressure support ventilation (PSV) is a pressure assist form of mechanical ventilatory support that augments the patient's spontaneous inspiratory efforts with a clinician selected level of positive airway pressure. To understand the effects of PSV on respiratory function, experiments were performed on 15 stable patients requiring synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation (SIMV), as well ...
متن کاملSleep and respiratory function after withdrawal of noninvasive ventilation in patients with chronic respiratory failure.
BACKGROUND In patients with restrictive thoracic disease, little is known about changes in sleep and breathing if the patient stops using nocturnal noninvasive ventilation (NIV). Better understanding of those changes may affect NIV management and improve our understanding of the relationship of night-to-night variability of respiratory and sleep variables and morning gas exchange. METHODS Wit...
متن کاملThe efficacy and safety of two different doses of caffeine in respiratory function of preterm infants
Background: Caffeine is widely used for prevention of apnea and helps successful extubation from mechanical ventilation. It facilitates the transition from invasive to noninvasive support and reduces duration of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in preterm infants. The optimum caffeine dose in preterm infants has not been well-studied in terms of benefits and risks. We compared efficac...
متن کاملEffects of Biofeedback Therapy on Cardiovascular and Respiratory Indices in NREM Sleep Parasomnias with Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Case study
Introduction: Non-REM parasomnias are a relatively common condition in the general human population. Current treatment plans are usually based on small case series and reports. Considering the effects of sleep disorders on different aspects of human life and the failure of pharmacological treatments in this field, the present study was designed to investigate a case of this sleep disorders with...
