We describe the respiratory mechanics and lung aeration in anesthetized obese dogs
ventilated with tidal volumes (VT) based on ideal (VTi) vs. current (VTc) body weight. Six …

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of 2 tidal volumes (TV s) with or without positive end-
expiratory pressure (PEEP) on lung mechanics, aeration, and gas exchange in healthy …

Objective This study aimed to evaluate lung overinflation at different airway inspiratory
pressure levels using computed tomography in cats undergoing general anesthesia. Study …

The present study describes the magnitude and spatial distribution of lung strain in healthy
anesthetized, mechanically ventilated dogs with and without positive end-expiratory …

Objective To determine if low tidal volume (VT) ventilation is associated with the
development of respiratory acidosis and changes in lung function in healthy dogs. Design …

Objective To evaluate three routinely used tidal volumes (VT; 10, 12 and 15 mL kg− 1) for
controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) in lung-healthy anaesthetized dogs by assessing …

Background Pulmonary atelectasis is a commonly occurs during anesthesia. In these cases,
mechanical ventilation (MV) associated with alveolar recruitment maneuvers (ARMs) and …

Background Traditionally, the choice of tidal volume for mechanical ventilation was based
on body weight (BW) and usually, predicted BW was used to correct actual BW inter …

This paper compares and describes the tidal volume (Vt) used in mechanically ventilated
dogs under a range of clinical conditions. Twenty-eight dogs requiring mechanical …

Objective—To evaluate the effects of obesity on pulmonary function in healthy adult dogs.
Animals—36 Retrievers without cardiopulmonary disease. Procedures—Dogs were …
