Journal ArticleDOI
Ventilation with lower tidal volumes as compared with traditional tidal volumes for acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome.
Roy G. Brower,Michael A. Matthay,Alan H. Morris,David A. Schoenfeld,B. Taylor Thompson,Arthur P. Wheeler +5 more
TL;DR: In patients with acute lung injury and the acute respiratory distress syndrome, mechanical ventilation with a lower tidal volume than is traditionally used results in decreased mortality and increases the number of days without ventilator use.
Journal ArticleDOI
The American-European Consensus Conference on ARDS: Definitions, mechanisms, relevant outcomes, and clinical trial coordination
Gordon R. Bernard,Antonio Artigas,Kenneth L. Brigham,J. Carlet,K. Falke,L. Hudson,M. Lamy,J. R. LeGall,Alan H. Morris,Roger G. Spragg +9 more
TL;DR: The acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a process of nonhydrostatic pulmonary edema and hypoxemia associated with a variety of etiologies, carries a high morbidity, mortality, and financial cost.
Journal ArticleDOI
Higher versus Lower Positive End-Expiratory Pressures in Patients with the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Roy G. Brower,Paul N. Lanken,Neil R. MacIntyre,Michael A. Matthay,Alan H. Morris,Marek Ancukiewicz,David A. Schoenfeld,B. Taylor Thompson +7 more
TL;DR: In patients with acute lung injury and ARDS who receive mechanical ventilation with a tidal-volume goal of 6 ml per kilogram of predicted body weight and an end-inspiratory plateau-pressure limit of 30 cm of water, clinical outcomes are similar whether lower or higher PEEP levels are used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reference spirometric values using techniques and equipment that meet ATS recommendations.
TL;DR: This study produced predicted values for forced vital capacity and forced expiratory volume in one second that were almost identical to those predicted by Morris and associates when the data from their study were modified to be compatible with the back extrapolation technique recommended by the ATS.
Journal ArticleDOI
Randomized clinical trial of pressure-controlled inverse ratio ventilation and extracorporeal CO2 removal for adult respiratory distress syndrome.
Alan H. Morris,C. J. Wallace,Ronald L. Menlove,Terry P. Clemmer,James F. Orme,Lindell K. Weaver,Nathan C. Dean,Frank Thomas,Thomas D. East,Nathan L. Pace,Mary R. Suchyta,E. Beck,M. Bombino,Dean F. Sittig,S. Bohm,B. Hoffmann,H. Becks,S. Butler,John E. Pearl,B Rasmusson +19 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the impact of a new therapy that includes pressure-controlled inverse ratio ventilation followed by extracorporeal CO2 removal on the survival of patients with severe ARDS in a randomized controlled clinical trial.
