Noninvasive Positive−Pressure Ventilation Via Face Mask During Bronchoscopy With BAL in High−Risk Hypoxemic Patients

TL;DR: NPPV should be considered during bronchoscopy of immunosuppressed patients with severe hypoxemia, and NPPV significantly improved PaO2/FIo2 and O2 saturation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Risk factors for acute renal failure in trauma patients.

TL;DR: The identified risk factors for post-traumatic acute renal failure may help the provision of future strategies, and the need for mechanical ventilation with a positive end-expiratory pressure, rhabdomyolysis with CPK, and hemoperitoneum were the three conditions most strongly associated with ARF.
Journal ArticleDOI

Noninvasive positive pressure ventilation delivered by helmet vs. standard face mask.

TL;DR: This bench and human study compared large and small helmets with face mask (FM) for delivery of noninvasive positive pressure ventilation and found that during CPAPLF helmets were more efficient than FM, while duringCPAPHF the three interfaces were comparable.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-invasive ventilation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients: helmet versus facial mask

TL;DR: Helmet and facial mask were equally tolerated and both were effective in ameliorating gas exchange and decreasing inspiratory effort, however, the helmet was less efficient in decreasingInspatory effort and worsened the patient–ventilator interaction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of terlipressin on systemic and regional haemodynamics in catecholamine-treated hyperkinetic septic shock

TL;DR: Findings showed that, in patients with norepinephrine-treated septic shock, terlipressin increased GMP, urine output and creatinine clearance by an increase in mean arterial pressure.
