Background During protective mechanical ventilation, electrical impedance tomography
(EIT) is used to monitor alveolar recruitment maneuvers as well as the distribution of …

Objectives The aim of this study was to compare the effects of a sustained inflation alveolar
recruiting maneuver (ARM) followed by 5 cmH2O of PEEP and a stepwise ARM, in dogs …

Objective To evaluate gas exchange, respiratory mechanics, and hemodynamic impact of
mechanical ventilation with low tidal volume (VT) in dogs with the use of positive end …

Objective To compare the effects of three recruitment airway pressures (RP aw) on lung
aeration and volumes in mechanically ventilated dogs during propofol anesthesia. Study …

Simple Summary Laparoscopic neutering techniques are widely used in veterinary medicine
due to their numerous advantages compared to open ones. However, laparoscopy requires …

Objective: To compare the cardiopulmonary effects of apneustic anesthesia ventilation
(AAV) and conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV) in anesthetized pigs and to describe …

Sedation and general anesthesia produce profound changes in respiratory function, with the
degree of change depending on drugs employed, species involved, depth of anesthesia …

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

The aim was to assess the effects of recumbency and body condition score (BCS) on open-
lung positive end-expiratory pressure (OL-PEEP) and quasistatic respiratory system …

Alveolar recruitment manoeuvres (ARM) performed during general anaesthesia improve
oxygenation; however cardiovascular depression may be observed. The aim of the study …
