Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is characterised by acute hypoxaemic
respiratory failure with bilateral infiltrates on chest imaging, which is not fully explained by …

Purpose To assess the effect of venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO)
compared to conventional management in patients with severe acute respiratory distress …

Purpose To describe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) severity, ventilation
management, and the outcomes of ICU patients with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 and to …

Background Patients with COVID-19 who develop severe acute respiratory distress
syndrome (ARDS) can have symptoms that rapidly evolve to profound hypoxaemia and …

Background In the Île-de-France region (henceforth termed Greater Paris), extracorporeal
membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) was …

Background Mortality in acute respiratory failure remains high despite the use of lung-
protective ventilation. Recent studies have shown an association between baseline …

Ventilation is inherently a dynamic process. The present-day clinical practice of
concentrating on the static inflation characteristics of the individual tidal cycle (plateau …

Background: Sepsis is a deadly disease worldwide. Effective treatment strategy of sepsis
remains limited. There still was a controversial about association between preadmission …

Background Mechanical power (MP) is the energy delivered to the respiratory system over
time during mechanical ventilation. Our aim was to compare the currently available methods …

Background Mechanical power during ventilation estimates the energy delivered to the
respiratory system through integrating inspiratory pressures, tidal volume, and respiratory …
