Journal ArticleDOI
Paralysis has no effect on chest wall and respiratory system mechanics of mechanically ventilated, sedated patients
Giorgio Conti,V Vilardi,Monica Rocco,R A DeBlasi,A Lappa,M. Bufi,Massimo Antonelli,Alessandro Gasparetto +7 more
TL;DR: The administration of pancuronium bromide to sedated patients induced a complete muscle paralysis without producing significant modification both to the viscoelastic and to the resistive parameters of chest wall and respiratory system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exposure to noise during continuous positive airway pressure : influence of interfaces and delivery systems
Franco Cavaliere,Giorgio Conti,Roberta Costa,Giorgia Spinazzola,Rodolfo Proietti,A Sciuto,Simonetta Masieri +6 more
TL;DR: Noise intensity and perceived noisiness during continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) performed with two interfaces (face‐mask, helmet) and four delivery systems are measured.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sedation in non-invasive ventilation: do we know what to do (and why)?
TL;DR: An agenda for placing the use of sedation in NIV on a more systematic footing is outlined, including clearly expressed criteria and conditions for terminating NIV and structural and organizational conditions for prospective multicentre trials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nebulized iloprost and noninvasive respiratory support for impending hypoxaemic respiratory failure in formerly preterm infants: A case series
Marco Piastra,Daniele De Luca,Maria Pia De Carolis,Alessia Tempera,Eleonora Stival,Francesca Caliandro,Domenico Pietrini,Giorgio Conti,Gabriella De Rosa +8 more
TL;DR: A series of ex‐preterm infants admitted to pediatric intensive care unit due to impending hypoxaemic respiratory failure complicated by pulmonary hypertension who were treated electively combining noninvasive ventilation (NIV) and nebulized iloprost (nebILO) are described.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secretory phospholipase A2 pathway during pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome: A preliminary study
Daniele De Luca,Angelo Minucci,Paola Cogo,Ettore Capoluongo,Giorgio Conti,Domenico Pietrini,Virgilio P. Carnielli,Marco Piastra +7 more
TL;DR: The sPLA2 and TNF-&agr; are increased in ARDS and seem correlated with clinical severity, higher oxygen requirement, and more aggressive ventilation.
