Objective The objective of this study was to identify the definitional criteria for the pressure-
limited and time-cycled modes: airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) and biphasic …

Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a relatively new mode of ventilation, that only
became commercially available in the United States in the mid-1990s. Airway pressure …

The systems and methods include providing a Volume-tar geted minimum pressure-control
breath type during ventila tion of a patient. The system and methods provide a novel breath …

患者PEEP 的选择方法. 方法以11 例血流动力学稳定, 接受机械通气的ARDS 患者为研究对象 …

Isoprostanes are products of peroxidative attack of membrane lipids. As such, they
accumulate to substantial levels in conditions of oxidative stress, including many pulmonary …

Objectives: To assess the effects of different levels of spontaneous breathing during biphasic
positive airway pressure/airway pressure release ventilation on lung function and injury in …

The first attempt to assist ventilation through intermittent positive pressure was performed by
Vesalius in 1555 when he blew into a reed inserted into the trachea of animals. The first use …

Objective We conducted a retrospective study assessing the relationship between
comorbidity, using the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI), and the prognoses of acute lung …

Background Primary blast lung injury (PBLI) presents as a syndrome of respiratory distress
and haemoptysis resulting from explosive shock wave exposure and is a frequent cause of …

Patients with acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) exhibit
multiple areas of lung collapse, often in the dependent regions. The ensuing decrease in …
