Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation of right-heart catheterization in the critically ill patient without acute myocardial infarction
TL;DR: Although there is no evidence that right-heart catheterization reduces the mortality of patients with acute myocardial infarction, the information it yields is sufficiently useful in assessing prognosis and directing therapy that the risks associated withCatheterization are thought to be low.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pulmonary effects of experimental graded aspiration of hydrochloric acid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of inspiratory flow rate on gas exchange during mechanical ventilation.
TL;DR: It is concluded that mechanical ventilation at high VI in patients with CAO is associated with improvement in gas exchange and more even distribution of ventilation, which appear to be due to the increased time available for alveolar emptying.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: With acute changes in pulmonary hemodynamics, ETV was reduced by reductions in pulmonary arterial pressure sufficient to produce zone 1 conditions at the top of the lung and Distortion of the thermal dilution curve due to position of the arterial thermistor appears to be the greatest source of variability and overestimation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cardiac arrhythmias during postural drainage and chest percussion of critically ill patients
TL;DR: It is concluded that arrhythmias are common during PDP of critically ill patients and recommend that ICU patients be carefully monitored during PPD, and when considering PDP for older patients and patients with acute cardiac disease, physicians should carefully weigh the risk of arrh rhythms against the benefits of this treatment.
