Laurent Brochard,Françoise Roudot-Thoraval,Eric Roupie,Christophe Delclaux,Jean Chastre,Enrique Fernández-Mondéjar,Clémenti E,Jordi Mancebo,Dimitros Matamis,Marco Ranieri,Lluis Blanch,Rodi G,H Mentec,Didier Dreyfuss,Miquel Ferrer,Christian Brun-Buisson,Martin J. Tobin,François Lemaire +17 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that no benefit could be observed with reduced VT titrated to reach plateau pressures around 25 cm H2O compared with a more conventional approach in which normocapnia was achieved with plateau pressures already below 35 cm H 2O.
Journal ArticleDOI

Andrés Esteban,Inmaculada Alía,Martin J. Tobin,A Gil,Federico Gordo,I. Vallverdú,Lluis Blanch,A Bonet,A. Vazquez,R de Pablo,Antoni Torres,M. A. de la Cal,Santiago Macias +12 more
TL;DR: After a first trial of spontaneous breathing, successful extubation was achieved equally effectively with trials targeted to last 30 and 120 min.
Journal ArticleDOI
Continuous Aspiration of Subglottic Secretions in Preventing Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia
Jordi Vallés,Antonio Artigas,Jordi Rello,Natalia Bonsoms,Dionisia Fontanals,Lluis Blanch,Rafael Fernandez,F. Baigorri,J. Mestre +8 more
TL;DR: The usefulness of continuous aspiration of subglottic secretions in the prevention of ventilator-associated pneumonia in a medicalsurgical intensive care unit is evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Jordi Mancebo,Rafael Fernandez,Lluis Blanch,Gemma Rialp,Federico Gordo,Miquel Ferrer,Fernando Rodríguez,Pau Garro,Pilar Ricart,I. Vallverdú,Ignasi Gich,José Castaño,P. Saura,Guillermo Domínguez,Alfons Bonet,Richard K. Albert +15 more
TL;DR: Pone ventilation is feasible and safe, and may reduce mortality in patients with severe ARDS when it is initiated early and applied for most of the day.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Data from this study indicate that prone positioning does not provide significant survival benefit in patients with ARDS or in subgroups of patients with moderate and severe hypoxemia.
