This review considers measurement of global and regional ventilation inhomogeneity (VI) in
infants and young children with acute neonatal respiratory disorders and chronic lung …

Uneven distribution of exogenous surfactant contributes to a poor clinical response in
animal models of respiratory distress syndrome. Alveolar recruitment at the time of surfactant …

Ready access to physiologic measures, including respiratory mechanics, lung volumes, and
ventilation/perfusion inhomogeneity, could optimize the clinical management of the critically …

Objectives To determine whether the low-frequency forced oscillation technique (LFOT) can
track changes in lung mechanics resulting from prophylactic intratracheal surfactant and a …

The development of exogenous surfactant therapy was a significant and historic advance in
neonatal intensive care. Work by pioneers in the field of surfactant research described the …

OBJETIVO: Apresentar uma revisão das principais causas da nova displasia
broncopulmonar e as estratégias utilizadas para diminuir sua incidência nos prematuros …

We set out to evaluate the impact of volume‐targeted synchronized ventilation and
conventional intermittent mandatory ventilation (IMV) on the early physiologic response to …

Objective: Our purpose was to determine whether there exists a mortality difference between
neonates treated with Infasurf (surfactant A [SA], ONY, Inc, Amherst, NY) and Survanta …

Lung clearance index (LCI), measured by multiple breath washout (MBW), is one of the most
frequently used measures of ventilation inhomogeneity. This study was designed to …
