Journal ArticleDOI

Patient-ventilator asynchrony during assisted mechanical ventilation

TL;DR: One-fourth of patients exhibit a high incidence of asynchrony during assisted ventilation, which is associated with a prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation and with excessive levels of ventilatory support.
Journal ArticleDOI

Physiologic effects of noninvasive ventilation during acute lung injury.

TL;DR: It is concluded that, in patients with acute lung injury, noninvasive pressure-support ventilation combined with positive end-expiratory pressure is needed to reduce inspiratory muscle effort and continuous positive airway pressure, in this setting, improves oxygenation but fails to unload the respiratory muscles.
Journal ArticleDOI

High tidal volumes in mechanically ventilated patients increase organ dysfunction after cardiac surgery.

TL;DR: Tidal volumes of more than 10 ml/kg are risk factors for organ failure and prolonged intensive care unit stay after cardiac surgery, and women and obese patients are particularly at risk of being ventilated with injurious tidal volumes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prevention of Endotracheal Suctioning-induced Alveolar Derecruitment in Acute Lung Injury

TL;DR: Suctioning-induced lung derecruitment in acute lung injury can be prevented by performing recruitment maneuvers during suctioning and minimized by avoiding disconnection.
