Numerical study of variable lung ventilation strategies
Mechanical ventilation is used for patients with a variety of lung diseases. Traditionally, ventilators have been designed to monotonously deliver equal sized breaths. While it may seem intuitive that lungs may benefit from unvarying and stable ventilation pressure strategy, recently it has been reported that variable lung ventilation is advantageous. In this study, we analyze the mean tidal vo...
متن کاملProtective strategies for one-lung ventilation
provided the original work is properly cited. CC Hypoxemia and acute lung injury (ALI) are major concerns with one-lung ventilation (OLV) during thoracic surgery. Hypoxemia is usually the result of alveolar hypoventilation and an increasing shunt fraction, whereas ALI is caused by ventilatory stress (volutrauma, atelectrauma, and barotrauma), reexpansion pulmonary injury, and the lung surgery i...
متن کاملLung ventilation strategies and regional lung inflammation
Protective mechanical ventilation is currently accepted as a key strategy for the management of acute lung injury (ALI) and its most severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome. The study by de Prost and colleagues in the current issue of Critical Care provides new insights into the impact of ventilation strategies on pulmonary function, gas exchange, and regional cellular metabolic activi...
متن کاملSafer ventilation of the injured lung: one step closer
Prevention of iatrogenic injury due to ventilation of a heterogeneous lung requires knowledge of dynamic regional events occurring within the tidal cycle. Quantitative bedside imaging techniques that are sensitive to regional mechanics and tidal events hold potential for information delivery that cannot be realized by pressure-volume monitoring alone.
متن کاملA Full-Fuzzy Rate Controller for Variable Bit Rate Video
In this paper, we propose a new full-fuzzy video ratecontrol algorithm (RCA) for variable bit rate (VBR) videoapplications. The proposed RCA provides high qualitycompressed video with a low degree computational complexity.By controlling the quantization parameter (QP) on a picturebasis, it produces VBR video bit streams. The proposed RCAhas been implemented on the JM H.264/AVC video codec andth...
