Background and objectives: the weaning procedure of mechanical ventilation in many patients is a difficult and long process and increases the time of mechanical ventilation. There are numerous ways to achieve this goal. One common way is using CPAP-ventilator. Considering the lower price of Blender-Humidifier compared to CPAPof ventilator and the limited number of studies in this field, this st...

OBJECTIVES This study is a cross-sectional study to investigate the frequency of humidifier and humidifier disinfectant usage in the general population. METHODS A questionnaire was applied to 94 subjects (46 male, 48 female) from the general population of Gyeonggi Province. The questionnaire consisted of 3 scales (general characteristics, 5 items about humidifier usage, 5 items about humidifi...

The purpose of respiratory support is to maintain adequate ventilation and oxygenation. Consequently, ensuring adequate alveolar ventilation is essential for expelling carbon dioxide produced in the human body. Currently, during invasive or noninvasive ventilatory support, minute ventilation is manipulated to ensure adequate alveolar ventilation. For patients with COPD exacerbations, noninvasiv...

The prevalence of viable thermophilic bacteria and actinomycetes and mesophilic fungi was examined in 145 samples from 110 domestic humidifiers. A total of 72 and 43% of furnace and console humidifier samples, respectively, contained viable thermophilic bacteria, whereas 60 and 72% of these samples produced mesophilic fungal growth. Thermophilic actinomycetes were recovered from seven humidifie...

BACKGROUND Nontuberculous mycobacteria are well known to be a cause of hot tub lung, however, to our knowledge, there exists no case report of humidifier lung induced by mycobacteria. CASE PRESENTATION A case of a nonimmunocompromised female patient with Mycobacterium gordonae-induced humidifier lung is described. She spontaneously recovered after discontinuing ultrasonic humidifier use. When...

UNLABELLED We conducted a comprehensive humidifier disinfectant exposure characterization for 374 subjects with lung disease who presumed their disease was related to humidifier disinfectant use (patient group) and for 303 of their family members (family group) for an ongoing epidemiological study. We visited the homes of the registered patients to investigate disinfectant use characteristics. ...

High-flow oxygen therapy provides adequate to those patients who suffer from pulmonary disorders due the COVID-19 virus. The purpose of this research is develop an device that produces high-flow and a humidified supply suffering Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) caused by COVID-19. development High-Flow Oxygen Therapy (HFOT) using cannulatio...
