Journal ArticleDOI

Real-time effects of lateral positioning on regional ventilation and perfusion in an experimental model of acute respiratory distress syndrome

TL;DR: In this article , a real-time individualization of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) whenever in lateral positioning was proposed to attenuate collapse in the dependent lung regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of general anesthesia and controlled mechanical ventilation on pulmonary ventilation distribution assessed by electrical impedance tomography in healthy children

TL;DR: In this article , the authors evaluated the pattern of distribution of pulmonary ventilation through EIT before and after anesthesia induction in pediatric patients without lung disease undergoing nonthoracic surgery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phrenic Nerve Block and Respiratory Effort in Pigs and Critically Ill Patients with Acute Lung Injury

TL;DR: Phrenic nerve block is feasible, lasts around 12 h, and reduces VT and driving pressure without changing respiratory rate in patients under assisted ventilation, and in nine patients with excessive inspiratory effort with acute respiratory distress syndrome on mechanical ventilation evaluating transdiaphragmatic pressures and electrical activity.
