Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical applications of independent lung ventilation with unilateral high-frequency jet ventilation (ILV-UHFJV)

TL;DR: Six patients with unilateral acute lung injury were treated with a new form of ventilatory support: independent lung ventilation with unilateral high-frequency jet ventilation (ILV-UHFJV), causing a significant improvement in alveolar gas exchange leading to a rapid fall in Qs/Qt.
Journal ArticleDOI

Continuous positive airway pressure with helmet versus mask in infants with bronchiolitis: an RCT

TL;DR: It is confirmed that CPAP delivered by helmet is better tolerated than CPAP delivery by facial mask and requires less sedation, and it is safe to use and free from adverse events, even in a prolonged clinical setting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Remifentanil effects on respiratory drive and timing during pressure support ventilation and neurally adjusted ventilatory assist

TL;DR: Remifentanil did not affect the respiratory drive, but only respiratory timing, without differences between modes, in patients receiving Pressure Support Ventilation and Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bench comparative evaluation of a new generation and standard helmet for delivering non-invasive ventilation.

TL;DR: Compared to the SH, the NH is equally effective in delivering nCPAP and more effective in deliver nPSV, and it is used to avoid the need for armpit braces.
Journal ArticleDOI

Secretory phospholipase A2 and neonatal respiratory distress: pilot study on broncho-alveolar lavage

TL;DR: The enzyme phospholipase A2 plays a role in neonatal lung injury, especially in infection related respiratory failure, and is associated with lung stiffness, higher mean airway pressure and need for oxygen.
